According to the following conditions, different scene types may be determined for the
same subject.
Face contrast, conditions of subject (size, distance, coloring, contrast, movement),
zoom ratio, sunset, sunrise, low brightness, jitter
●
If desired scene type is not selected, we recommend manually selecting the appropriate
Recording Mode. (Scene Mode: →61)
●
Backlight compensation:
Backlight refers to the light that shines from behind the subject. When this occurs, the
subject appears darker, and so backlighting is automatically corrected by increasing the
brightness of the entire image.
●
We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer with [i NIGHT SCENERY] and
[i NIGHT PORTRAIT].
●
When jitter is small (e.g. using tripod) with [i NIGHT SCENERY], shutter speed can
reach a maximum of 8 seconds. Do not move the camera.
