About Autobrite® technology
The camera offers the benefits of a technology known as Autobrite. This technology
automatically adjusts the exposure and captures crisp details in scenes where both
dim and bright lighting conditions are present, such as glare or backlighting. Most
existing digital cameras produce washed out or silhouetted images under such
conditions. We suggest you try to avoid taking pictures pointing directly at bright
objects (such as the sun), due to the potential impact of extremely bright lighting on
image quality and lens flare.
Autobrite is proprietary to SMaL Camera Technologies, Inc. of Cambridge,
Massachusetts, USA.
LOW LIGHT LOCK-OUT
Low light lock-out is a feature that prevents the camera from taking pictures in low
light settings when the flash is not ready. When low light lock-out is enabled, the
camera will give a warning beep – even if the sound is off. To override low light lock-
out, continue holding the Shutter button for 1 second after the warning beep.
