Shooting Suited to Scenes (Scene Mode) R Backlighting Use when light is coming from behind the subject, throwing features or details into shadow. Set HDR to On or Off in the o (backlighting) menu according to the shooting conditions and subject. Press the d button to display the o (backlighting) menu. • Off (default setting): The flash fires to prevent the subject from being hidden in shadow. The o icon is displayed at the top left of the monitor. • On: Use when taking pictures with very bright and dark areas in the same frame. The D icon and the P icon are displayed at the top left of the monitor. When HDR is set to Off: • The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame. • The flash fires regardless of the brightness of the subject when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way. More on Shooting When HDR is set to On: • The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame. • 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 125) at the time of shooting - HDR (high dynamic range) composite image (the effects of over-exposure and under-exposure are reduced) • The second image saved is an HDR composite image. If only one image can be saved, an image processed by D-Lighting is the only image saved. • If there are very bright areas and very dark areas in the frame, the D icon lights in green. • Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera steady without moving it until a still image is displayed. • After taking a picture, it takes some time to save the image. 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. • Digital zoom is not available. m m1 n Off2 p Off o 0.02 1 When HDR is set to On, the flash mode is fixed at W (off). 2 Default setting can be modified. 60
