Artur, If slight movement of the viewfinder would cause the meter to read differently, then you are relying too much on the automation of the camera. Generally, I meter pointing where I want, in center weighted or spot and then lock. So moving around a bit won't have any effect. Remember that you moving a bit doesn't change the lighting, only the camera's view. So what I said still holds. Point where I want to meter, spin the dial to get the f stop I want and then do the final composition.
