Manual capturing mode.

HDR

Use the HDR (High Dynamic Range) setting to take a photo against strong back light

or in conditions where the contrast is sharp. HDR compensates for the loss of detail

and produces a picture that is representative of both dark and bright areas.

Manual capturing mode.

ISO

You can reduce image blurring caused by dark conditions or moving subjects by

increasing the ISO sensitivity. Also, if you want to capture a bright image even in dark

conditions, you can set the ISO sensitivity to a higher value.
