Shooting Backlit Scenes
When shooting a scene having both the bright and dark areas, use the
<,il>
(HOR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this
mode, three consecutive shots are taken at different exposures. This results
in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the clipped
shadows
caused
by backlighting.
*
HOR
stands
for High Dynamic
Range.

Shooting Tips
•
Hold the camera steady.
Keep your elbows close to your body to hold the camera steady
(QJ
50).
In this
mode,
three
shots
are aligned and merged into a single image.
However,
if there is significant misalignment in any of the three shots due
to camera shake, they may not align properly in the final image.
