7.Next, compose the image again, this time without the subject you want to extract. Take care so the image composition here is as close as possible to the image composition in step 6. This second image will let the camera know what part of the image in step 3 needs to be cropped.
•A
3 (which includes the subject) will be visible on the monitor screen to help you compose the background image properly.
8.Press the shutter button to shoot the background only.
The camera compares the images you shot in steps 6 and 8 and extracts the subject. The extracted subject image will appear on the monitor screen. If you selected “Moving Subject”, the subject image will be moving on the display.
•You can interrupt an ongoing subject extraction process (steps 6 through 8) at any time by pressing [MENU] or [BS].
IMPORTANT!
•When shooting the subject image, shoot against a white wall or some other surface of a color that is different from that of the subject. The camera will not be able to crop the subject image properly if it is the same or similar color as the background.
•The camera may not be able to cleanly crop a subject that is not clearly defined on the monitor screen due to backlighting, shadows, light smear, insufficient lighting, etc. When shooting the subject, make sure that it is clearly defined and outlined on the monitor screen.
•The background you shoot in step 5 of the above procedure is not saved. Only the cropped subject image is saved.
