How do I take a meter reading with Nikon D200
Posted: Tue Jun 26, 2007 8:39 am
Just bought my first Digital SLR - Nikon D200 and was wondering how to take a meter reading? At the moment I'm guessing I focus as normal on the area I want to meter (choosing say spot metering) then press the AE-L (Exposure Lock) button. I then re focus back to my subject and take the photo. Is this the correct procedure? If so, then with the AE-L button pressed, the camera won't try to meter again when focusing on my subject. Is this correct?
