HDR Capture
When HDR Capture is set, the file format is always set to [JPEG] and cannot
be changed. You cannot use HDR Capture when the file format is set to
[RAW].
When HDR Capture is set, Multi-exposure is not available. Also, the drive
modes other than 9 (Single Frame Shooting) and h (Remote Control) are
not available.
HDR Capture cannot be used with Cross Processing or Digital Filter at the
same time. The mode set last is used.
You cannot use HDR Capture when the shutter speed is set to h.
During HDR Capture, multiple frames are combined together to create a
single image, so it will take time to save an image.
During HDR Capture, pressing the 3 button while an image is being
saved cancels the process and saves the image as a standard image.
The Shake Reduction function is automatically turned off when HDR Capture
is set. In this case, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
