Taking photos and videos
Using HDR Boost
When shooting portraits against a bright background, use HDR Boost to capture your subjects
clearly. HDR Boost also works in low light situations, giving you clearer photos with less noise.
§ HDR Boost works best when your subject is steady. The camera takes multiple shots at different
exposure levels and combines them into one enhanced photo.
§ HDR Boost is not available for use when Bokeh mode is enabled.

is 50 to 200 cm.

available in Bokeh mode. HDR Boost is also not available.
