HDR Capture

Enables capturing images with high dynamic range. Takes three images (-3 EV underexposed, standard (proper exposure) and +3 EV overexposed) to create a single composite image with them.

• HDR Capture is not available in the following situations. - when [File Format] is set to [RAW] or [RAW+]

- when the shutter speed is set to h

- when the capture mode is set to u(Blur Control), C (Movie) mode, or w(Quick Macro) of H(Scene) mode

• When HDR Capture is set, the following functions are not available. - Flash discharge

- Continuous Shooting, Remote Continuous Shooting, or Exposure Bracketing - Multi-exposure or Digital Filter

• During HDR Capture, shutter speeds of 1/8 sec. or slower are not available.

• During HDR Capture, multiple images are combined together to create a single image, so it will take time to save the composite image.

• Make sure to hold the camera firmly so that it does not move while the three images are taken. If there is a great difference between the three images due to camera movement, the message [The operation could not be completed correctly] appears, and the composite image will not be saved.
