Shooting Features
• The camera captures a series of up to 10 images while the shutter-release button is
held all the way down, and the sharpest image in the series is automatically
selected and saved (BSS (Best Shot Selector)).
• The flash does not fire.
• The shutter speed is fixed at about 4 seconds.
• The zoom is restricted to 10 fixed positions.
• Use together with macro mode (A54) when shooting subjects that are close to
the camera.
• From the screen displayed after o Backlighting is selected, select On or Off of
HDR (high dynamic range) composition based on the type of image you want to
take.
• Off (default setting): The flash fires to prevent the subject from being hidden in
shadow.
- When the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down, one image is
captured.
• On: Use when taking images with very bright and dark areas in the same 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
- If there is only enough memory to save one image, an image processed by D-
Lighting (A74) 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 still until
a still image is displayed. After taking an 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 is
narrower than that seen in the monitor at the time of shooting.
