[QUOTE="aroy, post: 661426, member: 16090"] To answer your question if you want precise focus where you want and perfect exposure of the object you are focusing at, use Single Point AF with Single Point Metering. I also use Single point Focus and Single point Metering. If I am not wrong with single point, the metering will be at the focus point and that is what I usually want. It is only when I use flash at short to medium distance that I use Matrix metering (where it acts as a fill flash), as with single point the flash will be in TTL mode which is much more power than I want at these distances when shooting in good light. For shooting birds, where a lot of light is required (unless the bird is in the sun) TTL works the best. [/QUOTE]
