Explanation:

Partial Metering is a camera-metering mode in which the metering is focused at the center of the viewfinder. You can think of Partial Metering as “expanded” spot metering, because the area that is metered is specific, but not tiny. Partial metering is best used when your subject is overly backlit and you want to get a quality exposure of the subject. Partial metering will enable correct exposure of your subject, however the background will be over-exposed.
