Shooting Suited to Scenes (Scene Mode)
R Backlighting
Use when light is coming from behind the subject, throwing features or details into
shadow.
Press the d button to set HDR to On or Off according to the shooting conditions and
subject.
When HDR is set to Off (default setting): The flash fires to prevent the subject from being
hidden in shadow.
• Raise the flash before taking pictures.
• The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame. One image is captured
when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way.
When HDR is set to On: Use when taking pictures with very bright and dark areas in the
same frame.
• The P icon is displayed in the shooting screen. If there are very bright areas and very
dark areas in the frame, the o icon lights in green.
• The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame. Digital zoom is not
available.
• When the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, the camera shoots images
continuously at high speed, and saves the following two images.
- An image processed by D-Lighting (A 133) at the time of shooting
- A composite image with high dynamic range (HDR) in which the loss of details in
highlights or shadows is minimized
• The second image saved is an HDR composite image. If there is only enough memory to
save one image, an image processed by D-Lighting is the only image saved.
• Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera steadily without
moving it until a still image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off
before the monitor switches to the shooting screen.
• 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.
