This ﬁgure shows the histogram before the D-Range Opti- mizer or the Auto HDR is applied, not that of the image that will actually be shot.

Triple-dial-control

Does not use DRO/Auto HDR.

By dividing the image into small areas, the camera analyzes the contrast of light and shade between the subject and the background, producing an image with optimal brightness and gradation.

Control Dial L

AUTO, Lv1 – Lv5 (D-Range Opt.)

AUTO, 1.0 EV – 6.0 EV (Auto HDR)

(Auto HDR)

Shoots three images with dierent exposures, and then overlays the bright area of the underexposed image and the dark area of the overexposed image to create an image with richer gradation. One image with proper exposure and one overlaid image are recorded.

e D-Range Optimizer optimizes the gradations of a recorded image in each area of the image. Select the optimal level between Lv1 (weak) and Lv5 (strong). Automatically adjusted at AUT O setting.

Using the Auto HDR, sets the exposure dierence, based on the contrast of the subject. Select the optimal level between 1.0 EV (weak) and 6.0 EV (strong). Automatically adjusted at AUT O.

ENG

Using the D-Range Settings eectively

By combining the DRO/Auto HDR manual setting (exposure dierence/ DRO-Level) and exposure com- pensation, you can control the range of the contrast of light and shade (gradations) to be reproduced.

With DRO, set a DRO-Level to reproduce the shadow tones, and set a minus value of exposure compensation to reproduce the light tones. A large minus compensation and DRO-Level setting may cause noise. It is recommended that you check the result rst, by enlarging the playback image, etc. With Auto HDR, set the exposure dierence to adjust the overall reproduction range, and shi the range towards lighter tones (minus compensation) or darker tones (plus compensation) with the exposure compensation setting.
