Having a thorough understanding of the digital SLR camera meters light is indeed important in order for one to achieve accurate and consistent exposures. Metering is what determines the camera's shutter speed and the aperture and is usually based on lighting as well as the ISO speed. The options for metering include center-weighted, evaluative zone, matrix, and partial and spot metering. Each of these options usually has lighting conditions that allows them to excel, or even to fail. Being well furnished with this equips with the intuition that helps one know how camera lighting works and that is what this tutorial seeks to achieve.

For one to have an accurate of exposure on the subject and good reflectance, digital SLR cameras are fitted with metering options. These options work by ensuring that light regions are well covered. Higher weighting is quite reliable and is thus considered appropriate for the calculation of the final exposure.

The whitest regions contribute a great deal in getting exposure calculation while the black ones are ignored. It is important to know when one is supposed to use partial or spot metering. These two give a photographer much control over the subject exposure than all other settings, which makes it much more difficult to use. Partial and spot metering are useful when one one wants to capture the image of a relatively small object within the scene that needs to either be perfectly exposed or when the photographer knows that this will provide a closer match to the middle gray.

When it comes to exposure compensation (EC), the metering calculation is done the same except for the final settings that are usually compensated by the EC value. Manual compensation is therefore made possible if one observes that metering mode is consistently over or under exposing the subject. Exposure compensation is quite ideal for the correction of in-camera metering errors that are caused by the reflectivity of the subject.

Does anyone make a digital SLR that accepts the Minolta Maxxum AF lenses?

I have a Minolta Maxxum 35mm camera and would like to go digital but I don't want to buy everything all over again. Does anyone make a digital camera that would accept the lenses I currently have?

Sony A200 is a great camera, highly recommended. It will probably work with your Maxxum flash in TTL mode too, if you have one.

I have Minolta lenses on my A200. The 35-70mm f4 and the 70-210mm f4. Both lenses are excellent. If you have the 50mm f1.7 it is a great lens on the A200 (I have the Sony 50mm f1.4). All of these f1.7 and f4 lenses are much sought after on eBay because they fit the new Sony's

The great thing about the Sony is that Imagine Stabilisation is built into the camera body, so your old Minolta lenses benefit from it!

If you are happy with using a viewfinder, the A200 is the one to go for. The A300 with "liveview" isn't worth the extra cash IMO. I don't need the extra mpix on the higher-end expensive Sony's either.
