Not sure if you read my post or you just blindly doing target practice, but I think I might be the only one in this group who actually use the camera to take photos since I haven't seen anyone posting any. So yes, if you take photos, spot metering would be nice. I can see it's being useful for timelapses as well.
But most people here spoke negatively about using the camera for photography and they are mainly using it for video. With that in mind, tell me how exactly will you use spot metering when placing your camera on a bicycle, or skiing down a slope, or during skydiving, surfing, underwater, putting in on an airplane, car dashboard, etc, where lighting conditions can change in a fraction of a second depending on how and where you turn/move?
I use it in my rally car, inside the car is dark and outside the windscreen is light. The action 3 simply doesn’t work for this and I’ve had to resort to using the action 1, which has spot metering. I only want the camera to focus out the windscreen, the 3 tries to focus everywhere and fails. |
