It says that the metering field is the 12mm spot, or 13% of the negative size, but then it also says that the metering field is 23% of what's in the viewfinder for any particular lens. I think that means 23% of what's contained within the appropriate brightlines for the lens, which is confirmed by the illustration of the different metering fields for the different lens/brightlines. Does that mean that the 12mm white spot somehow meters 23% of the field even though it amounts to only 13% of the 24x36 mm film size? What am I missing?
