All but the most basic of digital cameras offer a selection of metering modes, usually multi-pattern evaluative, centre-weighted and spot metering. Unfortunately, many photographers don't know how to take advantage of these 'advanced' settings and leave their cameras set on the default multi-pattern mode. While this mode works well for a wide range of subjects, there are times when spot metering can deliver much better exposures because of the greater precision it provides for controlling which parts of a subject are captured with full detail.
