Use a flash
To set the flash mode (off, always on, or auto), touch
on the viewfinder.
Use HDR in high-contrast lighting
Taking a photo of a bright scene that also includes dark shadows? Use HDR (High Dynamic Range) mode. The
camera captures multiple exposure levels and combines them into a single photo for vibrant colors and more detail
in both light and dark areas.
To set HDR mode (off, always on, or auto mode), touch
on the viewfinder.
HDR is best for:
•
Landscapes with bright sky and shaded hills or foliage
•
Outdoor portraits with lots of contrast
•
Backlit scenes with dark shadows and streams of sunlight
•
When both the camera and subject are stationary
Do
not
use HDR for:
•
Action shots
•
Low-light indoor photos
•
When you want to use the flash or the front camera
When the camera detects a high contrast scene, it automatically goes into HDR mode, and HDR appears in the
viewfinder. Consider whether HDR mode would improve the photo or not.
Use anti-flicker
To prevent horizontal or vertical lines (banding) on your photos and flickering in your videos, change the anti-flicker
setting. You may notice flickering when you use the camera under fluorescent light or when you capture a TV
screen. It occurs when the camera’s frame rate differs from the frequency of the electrical grid of your current
region. North America and a few other regions use 60Hz, while the rest of the world uses 50Hz.
