Shooting Features

Scene Mode (Shooting Suited to Scenes)

oBacklighting

On the screen that appears when o Backlighting is selected, HDR (high dynamic range) composition can be set.

When HDR is set to Off (default setting): The flash fires to prevent the backlit subject from being hidden in shadow. Shoot pictures with the flash raised.

When HDR is set to Level 1-Level 3: Use when taking pictures with very bright and dark areas in the same frame. Select Level 1 when there is less difference between bright and dark areas, and Level 3 when there is more difference between bright and dark areas.

The camera focuses at the center area of the frame.

BNotes on HDR

Use of a tripod is recommended. Set Vibration reduction in the setup menu (A110) to Off when using a tripod to stabilize the camera.

The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image will be narrower than that seen on the monitor at the time of shooting.

When the shutter-released button is pressed all the way, the camera shoots pictures continuously and saves the following two images.

-Non-HDR composite image

-HDR composite image (loss of detail is reduced in highlights and shadows)

-If there is only enough memory to save one image, one image processed by D-Lighting (A93) at the time of shooting, in which dark areas of the image are corrected, is the only image saved.

Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera steady without moving it until a still picture is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the monitor switches to the shooting screen.

Depending on the shooting conditions, dark shadows may appear around bright subjects and bright areas may appear around dark subjects. You can compensate by lowering the level setting.
