>>3502149Yes, it works just as you described. The reason I was shooting in center weighed average is, that I was using the camera on the go and the center spot doesn't align with the viewfinder. You'll have to either shoot at equiv. 80mm< so it aligns or use the display.
>>3502101I think it was more expensive because they marketed the S4 as a small sized luxury product. Remember that this camera was sold 2004 and the size was insanely small back then and a lot of people were still using film. Also , the camera can make meowing sounds when you press the shutterbutton or several meows when the timer counts down.
