Secret Camera Light Meter
Ted’s Wednesday Photo Tip is about the Secret Camera Built-in Light Meter.
To set the Exposure right, photographers need to measure the light.
In the old days, photographers used to carry around a hand-held light meter.
Thanks to digital cameras, there is a built-in light meter, which surprisingly is very accurate!
Secret Camera Light Meter Modes
There are three standard modes, Average, Center-weighted, and Spot metering.
Average Metering measures the overall exposure for the scene. It is best for Landscape photography.
Average Metering Mode

Spot Metering measures the exposure for a specific part of the frame. It is beneficial for high-contrast scenes.
Centre-Weighted Mode

Centre_weighted Metering allocates the exposure more towards the centre of the frame. It is best for portrait or sports photography.
Spot Metering Mode

Omnilargess Photography workshops focus on many hidden features in digital cameras and editing software. These hidden features assist photographers in taking their photography skills to the next level.
I dedicate a good portion of our digital camera workshops and Editing classes to discuss these hidden features.
Digital Camera Crash Course is one of our most popular photography courses. This two-week program is in four sessions, and each session consists of theories and hands-on practices.
Our next Digital Camera Crash Course starts on September 26th, 2020. There are only a few spots left.
