I don't think there is just one that will do everything best all the time. However, I think that if I only had one choice I'd choose spot.

artyboy Senior Member 796 posts Likes: 1 Joined May 2007 More info | Evaluative when the scene is 'well-balanced' (not high contrast) - works pretty well. Spot for high-contrast scenes and special situations where a small subject is dominated by a dark/bright environment.
