• The procedure of Step 2 can also be performed through the control panel.
• When both Shake Reduction and Auto Align are activated, take note of the
following points.
•
Make sure to hold the camera firmly so that the composition of the picture does
not change while the three images are captured. If there is a great difference
of the composition between three images, Auto Align may not be possible.
• Images captured with HDR Capture are susceptible to camera shake and
blur. Be sure to set a higher shutter speed and a higher ISO sensitivity.
• When the sensitivity is set to [ISO AUTO], the sensitivity can be raised
more easily than normal.
• Auto Align may not be possible when lenses that have a focal length
exceeding 100 mm are used, or when the entire subject is checkered or
has a uniform surface.
• In Z (Night Scene HDR) mode, [HDR Capture] is fixed to [Auto] and the
Auto Align function is enabled.
•
If [One Push File Format] is assigned to the V / Y button, pressing the button
temporarily deactivates HDR Capture and saves captured images in RAW+.
