No-one said it was perfect. All I said is the matrix metering is a lot
better than the R8. You want to claim that it is like 1% better or
something. I'm not saying how useful matrix metering is either. Only
that if you must use it, the Nikon is much better.

Yes you do. You live for it. hehehehehehe
