6M Pro-Still (Pixel Shift Mode)

The camera can achieve double its normal resolution by taking two pictures consecutively, shifting the CCD pixels one pixel row in the vertical direction between the two shots.

This mode uses the self timer to shoot a still picture. Use a tripod to prevent problems caused by shaky hands.

NOTES:

The picture size is automatically set to 2032 x 1536 with this mode.

Due to large memory files created when shooting a picture of uncompressed quality in this mode, it is recommended to use a Memory card with the capacity more than 16MB.

It takes a few seconds until the shooting finishes because this mode uses the exposure twice. Do not move the object and the camera until the shooting finishes completely.
