Pre-Shot helps you get the background you want, even if you need to ask someone else to record the
image for you. Basically, Pre-Shot is a two-step process.
1. You compose the background you want and press the shutter button, which causes a semi-transparent
image of the background to remain on the monitor screen.
2. Ask someone else to record a shot of you against your original background, telling him/her to
compose the image by using the semi-transparent monitor screen image as a guide.
The camera stores the image produced by step 2 only.
Depending on how the image is actually composed in step 2, its background may not be exactly
the same as the one you composed in step 1.
Freeze the background
on the monitor screen.
Record the image, using
the background on the
monitor screen as a guide.
Only the second image is
recorded.
