Taking HDR (High Dynamic Range) images
The camera shoots several images and automatically combines them into an HDR
image. You can also shoot several images and perform HDR imaging on a computer
(HDR bracketing photography). Exposure compensation is available with [HDR1] and
[HDR2] in P, A, and S modes. In mode M, exposure can be adjusted as desired for
HDR photography.

Shoot.
• When you press the shutter button, the camera automatically shoots the set number
of images.
• If you shoot with a slower shutter speed, there may be more noticeable noise.
• Attach the camera to a tripod or other stabilizing item and then shoot.
• The image displayed on the monitor or in the viewfi nder while shooting will differ from the
HDR-processed image.
• In the case of [HDR1] and [HDR2], the HDR-processed image will be saved as a JPEG
fi le. When the image quality mode is set to [RAW], the image is recorded in RAW+JPEG.
The only image recorded in RAW is the image with suitable exposure.
• If set to [HDR1]/[HDR2], the picture mode is fi xed to [Natural] and the color setting is fi xed
to [sRGB]. [Full-time AF] does not operate.
• Flash photography, bracketing, multiple exposure and time lapse shooting cannot be used
at the same time as HDR photography.
