Hi folks...I pride myself on my research capabilities, you'd think I'd find the exact answer out there on basic questions such as this, but as I've found you guys to be so knowledgeable, probably easier this way lol
1. Autofocus - Using my Canon system, I have a 7 point AF....how do I use this when taking shots? The manual is not very exact about this........I know a few of them light up when I line up a shot, does the center point need to be over my subject, or....I'm confused.
2. In-Camera Light Metering - Again, manual isn't very precise about this.........I'm on Evaluative metering (I've looked up the difference in metering systems already), how do I meter for a scene? Am I meant to point the MIDDLE of my viewfinder at the subject to meter....or am I supposed to point the middle at the BRIGHTEST object in the scene, or? Confused on this too...
Thanks in advance for any help guys/gals
