But, - big but here, my camera DOES have this icon (rect. with 2 arcs and dot in centre) for what apparently is evaluative metering, and does not have spot metering. I just thought that icon would make perfect sense for partial metering, but I guess not. I just did a quick test with the camera and the manual and you all seem to be correct, judging by the difference I noticed. I simply used a scene with a dark object the centre circle covered, and with partial metering the camera indicated it would expose the most. But, the icons still don't make sense according to their modes and what the icon portrays for symbols. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
