Page 177 Dynamic Getting the Most Out of Dynamic Photo For a wealth of information about Dynamic Photo including explanations about how to use Dynamic Photo images, the Dynamic Studio image conversion service, sample images, and more, visit the special Dynamic Photo website at: This manual provides an introduction to Dynamic Photo, which creates a whole new way to enjoy digital imaging.
Page 178: Dynamic Photo! A Totally New Way To Enjoy Digital Photography
Dynamic Photo! A totally new way to enjoy digital Dynamic Photo makes it easy to crop a moving subject out of a series of images and insert it into other images! A simple operation on the camera extracts a moving subject automatically by cropping up to 20 Continuous Shutter images.
Page 179: Using The Dynamic Photo Extracted Sample Subjects
Using the Dynamic Photo Extracted Sample Subjects Your digital camera comes with a number of extracted sample subjects in its built-in memory. You can use these sample subjects to practice creating Dynamic Photo images by inserting them into your original snapshots.
Page 180 After creation of the Dynamic Photo image is complete, the finished image with the inserted moving subject will appear on the monitor screen. After you master the above procedure using extracted sample subjects, you will be ready to create your own extracted subjects and insert them into snapshots for totally original Dynamic Photo images.
Page 181: Creating A Dynamic Photo Image
Creating a Dynamic Photo Image Step 1: Shoot the subject. Dynamic Photo images are created by extracting the subject out of one image, and inserting it into another image. The term “subject” as used here refers to what you extract or crop out of the first image. Perform the following steps to shoot and extract the subject.
Page 182 First, shoot the subject. Best results can be obtained with the camera secured on a tripod. With the camera pointed at the moving subject, press the shutter button to record. If you selected “Moving Subject”, the camera will record a series of Continuous Shutter (CS) images over a few seconds.
Page 183: Step 2: Create The Dynamic Photo Image
Complete! The camera compares the images you shot in steps 3 and 4 and extracts the subject. The extracted subject image will appear on the monitor screen. If you selected “Moving Subject”, the 20 subject images that were recorded will scroll on the screen, creating the illusion of movement.
Page 184 Use [4] and [6] to select the subject you want to insert and then press [SET]. * Only subjects that can be inserted into other images will appear at this time. Use the zoom controller to adjust the size of the subject and use [8], [2], [4], and [6] to adjust its position.
Page 185: Four Tips For Good Subject Cropping
Four Tips for Good Subject Cropping • When shooting the subject image, shoot against a white wall or some other surface whose color is different from that of the subject. The camera will not be able to crop the subject image properly if its color is the same as or similar to the background color.
Page 186 Move the subject away from the wall to avoid shadows! The camera may mistake shadows on the wall or floor caused by strong sunlight, illumination, or other light sources as part of the subject. Shadows tend to form when the subject is too close to a wall.
Page 187: Specifying The Subject Type And Cs Speed
Specifying the Subject Type and CS Speed Pressing [SET] during step 1 of “3. First, shoot the subject.” will display a screen for specifying the subject type and CS speed. You can select from among the four subject types listed below.
Page 188: On The Camera
Step 3: Have fun with Dynamic Photo. You can use the Dynamic Photo image you created in Step 2 in a variety of fun ways. Step 4: Convert a Dynamic Photo to a Movie A Dynamic Photo is stored as a series of 20 still images. You can use the following procedure to convert the 20 images that make up a Dynamic Photo to a movie.
Page 189: Step 5: Use Dynamic Studio To Expand Use Of Dynamic Photo Images To Other Applications
This makes it possible to view Dynamic Photo images you created with a CASIO EXILIM digital camera to a format that can be played back as a movie on a PC, digital photo frame, cell phone or other device.
