Multi-frame NR
Experience incredible low-light shooting without a flash. The camera captures six images in a fraction of a
second. Combining the data from all six, it creates a single image with a reduction in noise equivalent to two
additional steps of ISO sensitivity. Sensitivity selectable up to ISO 25600. (Recommended for still subjects.)
Hand-held Twilight
Get cleaner and sharper nighttime pictures—beyond the capability of traditional cameras—without using flash
or a tripod. The camera captures six images in a fraction of a second. Combining the data with separate
algorithms for still and moving parts of the picture reduces blur, minimizes noise and enables extraordinary detail.
Sweep Panorama™ Mode
Capture expansive landscapes automatically. Press the shutter and sweep vertically or horizontally. The camera
does the rest, continuously shooting images and stitching them together. Up to 23 MP image size.
3D Sweep Panorama™ Mode
Capture vast scenic vistas and 16:9 shots in spectacular 3D. As you sweep across the panorama, the camera
records separate right-eye and left-eye images that make landscapes come alive on your 3D television.
