Shooting Features

s3D photography

The camera captures one image for each eye to simulate a three-dimensional image on a 3D- compatible TV or monitor.

After taking the first picture by pressing the shutter-

release button or using the touch shutter, move the

 

camera horizontally to the right so that the subject is

 

aligned with the guide on the monitor. The camera

 

automatically takes the second picture when it

 

detects that they are aligned.

 

The camera focuses on the area in the center of the

 

frame for the first shot. The focus area can be

 

changed using the touch shutter or touch AF/AE

Guide

(A69).

 

The focus, exposure, and white balance are locked

 

after the first shot, and Ris displayed on the monitor.

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

Images captured in this mode are saved at an image size of n (1920 × 1080).

The two captured images are saved as a 3D image (MPO file). The first image (the left eye image) is also saved as a JPEG file.

B Notes About Taking 3D Pictures

Moving subjects are not suited to 3D photography.

Images have a less pronounced 3D feel as the distance between the camera and background is increased.

Images may have a less pronounced 3D feel when the subject is dark or when the second image is not aligned precisely.

Images captured under dim lighting may appear grainy with noise.

The maximum telephoto zoom position is limited to an angle of view equivalent to that of a 120 mm lens in 35mm [135] format.

Shooting is canceled after the first shot if fis tapped or the subject is not aligned with the guide within approximately ten seconds.

If the camera does not take the second picture and cancels the shooting even when you align the guide with the subject, try shooting with the shutter-release or touch shutter.

3D movies cannot be taken.
