Hi Thomas and List,

Sorry, the translation URLs were on a previous post.  Here they are:
http://world.altavista.com/tr?lp=ja%5Fen&tt=url&url=http%3A//www.canon%2Dsales.co.jp/7/product/point4/index%2Dj.html
 and
http://world.altavista.com/tr?lp=ja%5Fen&tt=url&url=http%3A//www.canon%2Dsales.co.jp/7/tech/page/p03.html

Systran gives the following translation for the four colours:
. Main subject photometry area
. Intermediate photometry area
. Peripheral photometry area
. Non-photometry area

It looks EXACTLY like the centre-weighted metering pattern, except
that the "centre" is on the active focussing point.

If this were so, evaluative metering would be *very* predictable, and
exposure compensation could be applied intelligently.

What did the EOS Magazine article say?

Cheers
Julian Loke
