w: HDR (High Dynamic Range) ShootingN
Using a tripod is recommended. For handheld shooting, using a fast
shutter speed is recommended.
HDR shooting of a moving subject is not recommended because the
movement of the subject will appear as afterimages in the merged
image. HDR shooting is suited for still subjects.
In HDR shooting, 3 images are captured with different shutter speeds set
automatically. Therefore, even in s and a shooting modes, the
shutter speed will be shifted based on the shutter speed you set.
To prevent camera shake, the ISO speed may be set higher than usual.
If [Auto Image Align] is set to [Enable] and the HDR picture is shot
handheld, the edges of the photos will be cropped, lowering the
resolution slightly. Also, if the images cannot be aligned properly due to
camera shake, etc., auto image alignment may not take effect. Note that
when shooting with excessively bright or dark exposure settings, auto
image alignment may not work properly.
If you perform handheld HDR shooting while [Auto Image Align] is set
to [Disable], the 3 images may not be properly aligned and the HDR
effect may be minimal.
Auto image alignment may not work properly with repetitive patterns
(lattice, stripes, etc.) or flat, single-tone images.
The color gradation of the sky or white walls may not be reproduced
correctly. Irregular colors or noise may appear.
HDR shooting under fluorescent or LED lighting may result in unnatural
color reproduction of the illuminated areas.
With HDR shooting, the three images will be merged after you take a
picture. Therefore, it will take a longer time to record the HDR image to
the card than with normal shooting. During the merging of the images,
“BUSY” will be displayed and you cannot take another picture until the
merging is completed.
In HDR mode, the options dimmed in the camera menu cannot be set.
When you set HDR mode, the Auto Lighting Optimizer will be set
automatically to [Disable]. It will revert to the original setting when you
cancel the HDR mode.
If the image-recording quality is set to RAW, the HDR image will be
recorded in 73 quality. If the image-recording quality is set to
RAW+JPEG, the HDR image will be recorded in the JPEG quality set.
You can also set HDR shooting with [z3: HDR Mode].
