Image Sharpening

The camera automatically processes pictures to empha-
size the borders between light and dark areas, making
edges seem sharper. As this processing occurs after
shooting, its effects can not be previewed in the shoot-
ing display, but they will be visible in the fi nal picture.
In P, S, A, and M modes, the image-sharpening menu
controls the amount of sharpening performed.
