Exactly my point. Before your try another camera,

On the REBEL cameras, "*" activates very-fat spot partial metering and also
activates exposure lock. If you lock the exposure, the meter reading will
not change.

A better way to do such experiments is to fill the entire viewfinder with a
constant light source. That way, you do not have to use partial metering.

Don't have a lightbox? Have your computer display a blank white screen. Set
your lens to manual focus and push your lens right up to the screen, and use
the camera strap to cover the viewfinder.
