HDR (High Dynamic Range) Shooting

5D Mk III

COPY

You can shoot photos with a wide dynamic range where clipping in highlights and shadows has been reduced, and photos that appear like paintings. This is suited for scenes such as still-life and landscape. In HDR shooting, one shot is taken using three images shot with different exposures (negative exposure, standard exposure, positive exposure), and they are combined into a single image automatically. Shot HDR images are recorded in JPEG quality.

* HDR stands for High Dynamic Range.

Set to HDR.

 Select [HDR Mode] in the [Shooting menu], and in the dialog box

that appears, specify the required settings and click the [OK] button.

 [Adjust dynamic range]: Sets the range of adjustment for

dynamic range. Select from [Disable HDR], [Auto], [±1], [±2], and [±3]. When selecting [Auto], the range of adjustment will be set automatically depending on the image's overall tonal range. The higher the number, the wider the dynamic range will be.

 [Effect]: Selects the finishing effect. For specific finishing effects,

refer to the pages about HDR (High Dynamic Range) shooting in the Instruction Manual provided with your camera.

 [Continuous HDR]: If [1 shot only] is selected, HDR shooting is

cancelled automatically after you finish shooting. If you select [Every shot], HDR shooting is continued until you select [Disable HDR] in [Adjust dynamic range].

 [Save source images]: To save the three shot images and the

completed HDR image, select [All images]. To save only the completed HDR image, select [HDR image only].

Take a shot.

 The HDR mode cannot be set if you use any of the following

functions: AEB, white balance bracketing, multiple exposures, flash exposure, bulb exposure, or movie shooting.

 HDR shooting of a moving subject is not recommended because

the movement of the subject will appear as afterimages in the merged image. HDR shooting is recommended for still subjects.

 In HDR shooting, 3 images are captured with different shutter

speeds set automatically. Therefore, even in Tv and M shooting modes, the shutter speed will be shifted based on the shutter speed set.

 To prevent camera shake, the ISO speed may be set higher than

usual.

 Auto image alignment may not work properly with repetitive

patterns (lattice, stripes, etc.) or flat, single-tone images.

 The color gradation of the sky or white walls may not be

reproduced correctly. Irregular colors or noise may appear.

 With HDR shooting, the three images will be merged after you

take a picture. Therefore, it will take a longer time to record the HDR image than with normal shooting. During the merging of the images, “BUSY” will be displayed on the camera and you cannot take another picture until the merging is completed.

 Using a tripod is recommended. For handheld shooting, using a

fast shutter speed is recommended.

 If [Auto Image Align] is set to [Enable] and the HDR picture is shot

handheld, the edges of the photos will be cropped, lowering the resolution slightly. Also, if the images cannot be aligned properly due to camera shake, etc., auto image alignment may not take effect. Note that when shooting with excessively bright or dark exposure settings, auto image alignment may not work properly.

 If you perform handheld HDR shooting while [Auto Image Align] is

set to [Disable], the 3 images may not be properly aligned and the HDR effect may be minimal.

 HDR shooting under fluorescent or LED lighting may result in

unnatural color reproduction of the illuminated areas.

 In HDR mode, the options dimmed in the menu cannot be set.

When you set HDR mode, the Auto Lighting Optimizer will be set automatically to [Disable]. It will revert to the original setting when you cancel the HDR mode.

 If you perform HDR shooting with the image quality set to RAW,

HDR images are recorded in [ ] quality.

 If you perform HDR shooting with the image quality set to

RAW+JPEG, HDR images are recorded in JPEG quality.

Troubleshooting

Installation could not be completed correctly

EU does not start up

The card reader does not detect the SD card.

EU and the camera are not communicating

COPY

Introduction

If EU is not operating correctly, see the items below.

 You cannot install the software if a user setting with privileges other

than [Administrator] or [Computer administrator] is selected. Select a user setting with [Administrator] privileges in Windows 7/Windows Vista or [Computer administrator] privileges in Windows XP. For detailed information on selecting the user setting, refer to your computer User’s Manual.

 If EU does not start up even when you have set the camera’s power

switch to < ON >, either double-click the [EOS Utility] icon on the desktop or click the [ ] button ([Start] button in Windows XP), select [All Programs]  [Canon Utilities]  [EOS Utility]  [EOS Utility] to start up EU.

 Depending on the card reader and computer OS used, SDXC cards

might not be correctly detected. In such a case, connect your camera and computer with the provided interface cable, and transfer the images to your computer.

 EU does not operate correctly on a computer if its system

requirements are not met. Use EU on a computer with compatible system requirements (p.2).

 Push the plug of the interface cable all the way into the socket. Loose

connections can cause faults and malfunctions (p.5).

 Check that the camera’s power switch is < ON > (p.6).



EU and the camera may not communicate normally with a cable other than the EOS DIGITAL camera-dedicated Canon interface cable

 Connect your camera and computer directly with the interface cable

provided with your camera. Do not connect the camera via a hub; doing so may prevent EU and your camera from communicating normally.

 If you connect multiple USB devices (not including the mouse or

keyboard) to your computer, the camera may not communicate normally. If the camera cannot communicate normally, disconnect USB devices other than the mouse or keyboard from your computer.

 Do not connect more than one camera to the same computer. Two or

more cameras may not operate normally.

 Do not connect your camera with the computer while performing

“Linked shooting” with a WFT series Wireless File Transmitter (sold separately). Your camera may not operate normally.

 Operation of the auto power off function will automatically switch the

camera off, disabling communication with EU, if you turn the auto power off function to [ON]. Remove the check mark from [Auto power off] in the preferences window (the [Basic Settings] tab sheet) (p.78) or set the auto power off function in the camera to [OFF].

 If you do not perform any operation while the camera and computer

are connected, depending on the computer system, a confirmation message may appear on the screen asking whether you wish to continue communicating with the camera. If you do not perform an operation while this message appears, communication with your camera is discontinued and EU shuts down. In this case, turn the camera’s power switch to < OFF >, then again to < ON > and start up EU.

 Do not put your computer to sleep while it is connected to the camera.

If your computer goes into sleep mode, never disconnect the interface cable while your computer is still in sleep mode. Always wake your computer up while it is still connected to the camera. Depending on the type of computer, disconnecting the interface cable while your computer is in sleep mode could prevent the computer from waking up correctly. Refer to the computer User’s Manual for more information on sleep mode.
