t
Auto knee function
When you adjust the levels to shoot people or scenery, etc. against a strongly lit background, the background will be totally whited out, and
buildings and scenery in the background will be blurred. In such a case, the auto knee function reproduces the background clearly.
The auto knee function is effective when shooting the following scenes:
- The subject is a person positioned in the shade under a clear sky.
- When shooting people in a vehicle or building as well as the background visible through a window at the same time.
