o Backlighting
Press the d button to select On or Off to enable or disable the high dynamic range
(HDR) function in HDR based on the shooting conditions.
Off (default setting): The flash fires to prevent the subject from being hidden in
shadow. Raise the flash before shooting.
- Press the shutter-release button all the way to capture one image.
On: Use when taking pictures with very bright and dark areas in the same frame.
- When there is a big difference between the bright and dark areas, the HDR icon on
the shooting screen changes to green.
- When the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, the camera shoots images
continuously and saves the following two images.
- A non-HDR composite image
- An HDR composite image in which the loss of details in highlights or shadows is
minimized
- Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera still until a still
image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the screen
switches to the shooting screen.
- The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image may be
narrower than that seen on the shooting screen.
- Under some shooting conditions, dark shadows may appear around bright subjects
or bright areas may appear around dark subjects.
- If HDR compositing could not be performed, the camera saves a non-HDR composite
image and an image in which dark areas are corrected by D-Lighting (A70).
- If there is only enough memory to save one image, an image processed by D-Lighting
at the time of shooting, in which dark areas of the image are corrected, is the only
image saved.

Notes About HDR
Use of a tripod is recommended. Set Photo VR (A138) to Off in the setup menu when
using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting.
d Sports
While the shutter-release button is held all the way down, images are captured continuously.
The camera can capture up to about 7 images continuously at a rate of about 7.7 fps
(when Image mode is set to P 4608×3456).
The frame rate for continuous shooting may become slow depending on the current
image mode setting, the memory card used, or shooting conditions.
Focus, exposure, and hue for the second and subsequent images are fixed at the values
determined with the first image.
