Using the Picture Correction Functions Effectively
Combining still pictures with different exposures ([HDR])
Available in the following modes:
The camera can combine 3 pictures taken with different brightness levels into a single
one with rich gradation. The individual exposures used to create the HDR picture are
not saved. This allows you to improve the rendition in bright and dark areas that would
otherwise not contain any detail.
A combined HDR picture is saved in JPEG format.

What is HDR?
HDR stands for High Dynamic Range and refers to a technique for the rendition of a
wider contrast range than possible with a single exposure.
●
After the shutter button has been pressed, do not move the camera during the exposure series.
●
Since a series of still pictures are combined after they have been recorded, it will take a few
moments before you will be able to record another picture.
●
A subject that was in motion when it was recorded may lead to a blurred image.
●
When [Auto Align] is set to [ON], the angle of view is slightly smaller.
●
When you take pictures using a flash, the flash mode is fixed to [ ] (Forced Flash Off).
●
This function will not work for still pictures while motion pictures are being recorded.
●
[HDR] cannot be used in the following cases:
•When the [Quality] setting is set to [
], [
] or [ ]
•When using [Time Lapse Shot]
•When using [Stop Motion Animation] (only available with [Auto Shooting] setting)
