3high-precision metering modes for greater shooting versatility

The 900 is equipped with a 40-segment honeycomb-pattern metering sensor that uses advanced algorithms to ensure balanced exposures under a wide range of lighting conditions. A convenient 3-way switch on the back of the camera allows you to choose between 40-segment honeycomb-pattern metering, center- weighted metering, or spot metering according to your shooting needs.

Standard exposure modes accessible from the top-mounted mode dial include Program Auto, Aperture priority, Shutter-speed priority, Manual, and Auto.

Versatile white balance settings for superior color in any light

The 900’s versatile range of white balance settings can be instantly accessed via a button on the top of the camera. In addition to Auto white balance mode there are user-tunable presets for Daylight, Shade, Cloudy, Tungsten, Fluorescent, and Flash lighting, as well as an adjustable Color Temperature mode and three user-conﬁgurable Custom modes. White balance bracketing, which records a single frame at three different white balance settings, can also be set via the Drive mode menu for easy best-shot selection.

Exposure bracketing up to ±2EV for secure “best-shot” capture

Exposure bracketing can be set via the Drive mode button to enable best- shot selection from a series of images. In keeping with the 900’s high performance standards, the range of

selectable options includes 3-frame or 5-frame bracketing in 0.3EV, 0.5EV, or 0.7EV increments, as well as new

3-frame ±2EV bracketing that makes it easy to create stunningly realistic high dynamic range composite images.

D-Range Optimizer for rich tone gradations in high-contrast light

When photographing scenes that contain extremes of light and shadow, it can be difﬁcult to capture the full range of tonal gradations that the human eye can see. But with the

900’s D-Range Optimizer function, the camera analyzes the scene for you, and automatically adjusts gradation reproduction parameters to assure optimum exposure balance, with richer highlight and shadow detail.

In Standard mode, the D-Range Optimizer analyzes the overall image before performing the optimization, and in Advanced mode,5 it analyzes each area of the composition separately. On the 900, improved algorithms provide even better performance, with a choice of Advanced Auto and Advanced Level

Exposure effect simulation

Another advanced function introduced for the ﬁrst time on the 900 is Intelligent Preview. Using this function, you can simulate the effect of various D-Range Optimizer, exposure compensation, and white balance settings, and display the result on the LCD monitor without actually taking a picture. It’s a great way to ﬁne-tune image adjustments in advance when working with a tripod and complex shooting setups.
