Setting the Smart Shade Control
The smart shade control function differs from backlight
compensation in that only dark areas are brightened while
bright areas are kept intact.
(1) [Smart Shade Control]
Set to [Off] or [On].
(2) Adjusting the Smart Shade Control
When smart shade control is [On], set one of the 7
levels from [1] (Mild) to [7] (Strong).
Example: If the background is bright and the subject
is hard to see, this function brightens dark areas to
make the subject clearer.
In comparison to backlight compensation, smart
shade control can reduce overexposure of bright
areas.
Note
• When [On] is selected for smart shade control, the image file
size increases.
• When [On] is selected for smart shade control, screen noise
may increase. If noise is noticeable, lower the control level.
Setting the Focus
[Auto]
: Automatically focuses on the
subject.
[Manual]
: You can adjust the focus manually
by pushing the
(far) and
(near) buttons.
Clicking [One-shot AF] will use
autofocus to focus on a subject and
then stop in manual focus.
