Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ HR mode
With Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ HR mode just press the shutter, pan the landscape and let
the camera do the rest. It automatically links together each frame to produce a high resolution
panoramic image providing the ability to print very large panoramic images as well as to zoom
in on small details in the distance and crop them in for a larger view of the object. The high
resolution image is a 42.9MP file which is compressed into a jpg. When opening the file in Picture
Motion Browser ver. 5.6, it decompresses to the 42.9MP file.
Background Defocus
DSLR photographs are often beautiful because they blur the background, putting the emphasis
on your subject. Now our point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this signature DSLR benefit. The
system takes two shots, identifies the background and applies a defocused background keeping
the subject crisp and clear.
Superior Auto mode
Get cleaner, more dynamic pictures and fewer missed shots. The camera automatically
recognizes the correct scene mode, then quickly shoots and combines up to six shots to produce
images with greater clarity, optimum dynamic range using backlight correction HDR technology
and lower image noise using 6 shots layering technology. Superior Auto intelligently detects 36
scenes for still images and movies, making it easy to get the best shot.
