Shooting Features Scene Mode (Shooting Suited to Scenes) W Backlighting Use when light is coming from behind the subject, throwing features or details into shadow. Press the d button to set HDR (high dynamic range) compositing using the HDR setting 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. - The camera focuses on the area in the center of the frame. - One image is captured when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way. • When HDR is set to Level 1-Level 3: Use when taking pictures with very bright and dark areas in the same frame. Select Level 1 when there is less difference between bright and dark areas, and Level 3 when there is more difference between bright and dark areas. - The P icon is displayed in the shooting screen. - The camera focuses on the area in 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. - A non-HDR composite image - An HDR composite image 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 (A 80) at the time of shooting, in which dark areas of the image are corrected, 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. - Depending on the shooting conditions, dark shadows may appear around bright subjects and bright areas may appear around dark subjects. You can compensate by lowering the level setting. 42
