Nikon D40 has three metering modes, this modes determine the method used to collect exposure information from a 420 pixel RGB array in the viewfinder screeen.
The three metering modes are:
Matrix
Center Weighted
Spot
Matrix metering is normally the best choice for most situration.
Center weighted metering is a good choice if the main subject is in the middle of the frame, and outside the center are areas that are very bright or very dark that might confuse matrix metering.
Spot metering is your best choice if there is a dramatic difference in illumination between the subject and the surroundings or if the subject isn't moving rapidly. For off-center subjects, this is the one to use.
