Backlight Correction HDR
Don’t miss a single detail in high contrast shots.
®
The built in backlight correction analyzes the
image and automatically adjusts accordingly
to give you a perfectly lit shot. Backlight
Correction HDR helps correct for this by taking
three pictures at different exposure settings and
processing the best elements of each into a
single image for more natural looking shots.
Background Defocus
DSLR photographs are often beautiful because
they blur the background, putting the emphasis
on the subject. Now our point-and-shoot
cameras can deliver this signature DSLR
benefi t. The system takes two shots, identifi es
the background and applies a defocused
background keeping the subject crisp and clear.
Manual Operation
Sometimes automatic just won’t do. The
manual operation function puts the control
back in your hands to get the shots that
you want, how you want them. Make minor
adjustments to white balance, Aperture
Priority and Shutter Priority.
