>>4148582, how should I meter night shots? I've been experimenting with different modes and nothing seems to give consistently good results. I shot most of last night center or center weighted and I got a few of blown out shots. like picrel I thought the light was pretty even so metering on center wouldn't matter, but I guess I was wrong. Also is there any way to check metering mode and exposure values from exif? It doesn't appear in my image viewer.
