So I have a quick "metering mode" question / technique advice
What is the one you guys use the most, I think I mostly have spot metering on my camera, but any advice on when to use other modes or when spot metering is just not very effective? Or the best way to meter before focusing like should I point at the sky and meter and then recompose (I read this a lot on the exposure book I been reading) but a lot of times when I do this the exposure ends up being way too dark.
I think mine is set to spot metering. Metering doesn't work with old glass on my D90, so I have to do test shots and chimp with the histogram, so I end up just doing that with modern glass too and adjusting the EV compensation for the situation.
