user provides lens data Center-weighted: Weight of 75% given to 12 mm circle in
center of frame; diameter of circle can be changed to 8, 15, or 20 mm, or
weighting can be based on average of entire frame (non-CPU and AF-S Fisheye
NIKKOR 8–15mm f/3.5– 4.5E ED lenses use 12-mm circle) Spot: Meters circle
approximately 4 mm in diameter (about 1.5% of frame) centered on selected focus
