Multi-interface terminal
Multi-interface Smart Accessory 2 shoe greatly expands the connectivity options such as external flash units.
Auto HDR built into camera
High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography captures more scene contrast than a single exposure can handle by combining the best
highlight detail from one shot and the best shadow detail from another for one incredible shot. Handles severe backlighting and other
high-contrast scenes. Captures in a split second. (Recommended for still subjects.)
Sweep Panorama™ Technology
Capture expansive landscapes automatically. Press the shutter, sweep vertically or horizontally. The camera does the rest,
continuously shooting images and stitching them together. Up to 23 MP image size. Up to 202 degrees maximum sweep angle (18mm
focal length).
