[QUOTE="lokatz, post: 637751, member: 43924"] Hi Chris, Take a look at page 129 of the D500 manual as it explains the different exposure metering modes: in Spot mode, the camera does exactly what you are asking. It meters the exposure against a small spot around your focus point. In the other modes, the focus point does not matter, so you are right that in matrix metering, the camera ignores your focus point. Simply switch to Spot metering - bingo! [/QUOTE]
