Metering
With the NEX-C3 aimed primarily at point-and-shoot photographers, the metering must produce good exposures without having to perform major post-capture image-editing adjustments.
Like other Sony system cameras we have tested, the evaluative metering of the NEX-C3 produces well-exposed images. In fact, there was only a handful of images for which I needed to adjust the exposure compensation or switch to spot or centreweighted metering.
When the metering is combined with the sensor’s dynamic range and in-camera colour and contrast, the NEX-C3 produces images that require little or no editing.
