First, let’s just have the subject wave or perform some other simple movement as we shoot.

3.First, shoot the subject.

Best results can be obtained with the camera secured on a tripod. With the camera pointed at the moving subject, press the shutter button to record. If you selected “Moving Subject”, the camera will record a series of Continuous Shutter (CS) images over a few

seconds.

• To help ensure good cropping results...

* See “Four Tips for Good Subject Cropping”.

You can select the subject type and configure other settings here by pressing the [SET] button.

* See “Specifying the Subject Type and CS Speed” for more information.

Flash is turned off (?) automatically when shooting with Dynamic Photo.

4.Next, shoot the same background again, but this time without the subject.

After shooting the first image with the subject, have the subject exit the frame. Keep the camera still so you can maintain the same background composition as the first image (with the subject). When everything is ready, press the shutter button.

Only one shot (not CS images) of the background is recorded at this time.

As shown in the image to the right, there is no need to carefully compose the two images when shooting against a flat wall that has no visible marks at all.

Complete!

The extracted subject image will appear on the display after shooting is complete. If you selected “Moving Subject”, the 20 subject images that were recorded will scroll on the screen, creating the illusion of movement.

The background-only image you shoot is not saved. Only the 20 cropped subject images are saved.

Note that you cannot cancel the image extraction process that starts after you shoot the images. Wait until the process is complete before performing any other camera operation.
