A Best Shot Selector (BSS)
The “best shot selector” is recommended from situ-
ations in which inadvertent camera movement can
result in blurred pictures, or when parts of the
image are prone to under- or overexposure.
At [On] and [Exposure BSS] settings, the flash auto-
matically turns off and focus, exposure, and white balance for all pictures are
determined by the first picture in each series.
The icon for the current setting is displayed in the monitor (c 6).
j Note on Best Shot Selector
BSS may not produce the desired results if the subject moves or the composition changes
while the shutter-release button is fully pressed.
A On
Recommended for taking pictures in poorly lit places, or in other situations
where camera shake may occur. Camera takes shots while shutter-release but-
ton is pressed, to a maximum of ten. These images are then compared and the
sharpest picture (picture with highest level of detail) is saved.
B Off
Only one picture is taken.
w Exposure BSS
Recommended for high-contrast subjects, when it is diffi-
cult to set exposure correctly.
[Highlight BSS]: picture with smallest area of
overexposure is selected.
[Shadow BSS]: picture with smallest area of underexposure is selected.
[Histogram BSS]: of pictures with least under- and over-exposure, camera
chooses picture with overall exposure closest to optimum.
Camera takes five shots each time shutter-release button is pressed, but only
the picture that best meets the selected criterion is saved.
