When there is, for example, strong contrast between the background and the subject, [iHDR] records multiple still pictures with differing exposures and combines them to create a single still picture rich in gradation.
This mode is preset to [ON].

●●This function is automatically activated only when 
is displayed on the monitor. ●●In the case that a single picture is going to be composed from an exposure series, a
message indicating that multiple pictures are to be recorded appears on the screen and an exposure series is carried out. Note that serial recording will not take place if the camera determines that it can compensate for the difference in contrast without composing the picture from a series.
●●The camera does not combine pictures in the following cases:
••When the magnification ratio exceeds the maximum optical zoom ratio ••[Burst] mode
••When the flash fires
●●In the case of composition from an exposure series, moving subjects may be captured in slightly different positions.
