The later curtain pattern 2 and the 2n are not center weighted in Auto 
Mode. The meter needle is center weighted in manual or auto, but the 
actual exposure is Auto is whole frame average. The early pattern 2 is 
vertically center weighted for faster speeds, below 1/60 it becomes 
progressivly more average.
