Coupling Shot and Pre-shot

Coupling Shot lets you combine two subjects into a single image, while Pre-shot lets you add a subject to a previously recorded background image.

Real-time histogram

An on-screen histogram lets you adjust exposure as you view the effect on overall image brightness, which makes shooting under difficult lighting conditions easier than ever before.
