High-ISO_Matrix-vs-Center-weighted-web
Center weighted vs. Matrix metering. Test shots done with Pentax K-1, SMC FA* 28-70mm F2.8 AL. I had Chrome Cast show my Irfan View slide show on a SONY TV screen, from which I recorded the test charts in a drak room. ISO 6400, Tv mode - 1/30s, using Center Weighted as well as Multi Segment metering. The result? It seems to me that Multi Segment metering to some extend does what the photographer would have done by using exposure compensation. Multi Segment meterings always stops down further, except when there's a lot of white, it opens a bit further up, like the photographer would for a back lit subject. I believe Multi Segment metering is no garantee for well exposed images, but it is useable when ever you are in a hurry and must rely on beeing able to correct errors in post.
