Understanding Light Metering in Photography
Advertisement
Light metering is how your camera "reads" the light in a scene to help decide the right exposure, meaning how bright or dark your photo will be. Think of it like this: your camera has a built-in light meter, kind of like a tiny light detector. It looks at the scene you're photographing and suggests the best settings to make sure your photo isn't too bright (overexposed) or too dark (underexposed).
