shooting documents, drawings, etc.).
Enable the EVS (Enhanced Vertical
definition System) function.

increase the occurrence of aliasing
problems (moiré patterns). Therefore,
normally leave the function disabled.
This enhances the vertical resolution.

when shooting a wedding or similar
occasion.
Use the HI SAT file. (Access advanced

This eliminates the blue-green cast, and
restores natural hues.
