Shooting in Hybrid Auto Mode

Still Images

Movies

You can make a short movie of the day just by shooting still images. The

camera records 2 – 4-second clips of scenes before each shot, which are

later combined in a digest movie.

1

Enter [ ] mode.

Follow step 2 in “Shooting (Smart Auto)”

(= 33) and choose [

].

2

Compose the shot.

Follow steps 3 – 4 in “Shooting (Smart

Auto)” (= 33) to compose the shot and

focus.

For more impressive digest movies,

aim the camera at subjects about four

seconds before shooting still images.

3

Shoot.

Follow step 4 in “Shooting (Smart Auto)”

(= 33) to shoot a still image.

The camera records both a still image

and movie clip. The clip, which ends with

the still image and a shutter sound, forms

a single chapter in the digest movie.

Battery life is shorter in this mode than in [

] mode, because

digest movies are recorded for each shot.

A digest movie may not be recorded if you shoot a still image
immediately after turning the camera on, choosing [

] mode,

or operating the camera in other ways.

Camera operating sounds will be recorded in digest movies.

2) Resize the subject and recompose

the shot as needed.

To resize the subject, repeat the

operations in step 3.

However, note that the sound of camera

operations will be recorded. Note that

movies shot at zoom factors shown in

blue will look grainy.

When you recompose shots, the

focus, brightness, and colors will be

automatically adjusted.

3) Finish shooting.

Press the movie button again to stop

shooting. The camera beeps twice as

recording stops.

Recording will stop automatically when

the memory card becomes full.

The flash firing during shots indicates that the camera has
automatically attempted to ensure optimal colors in the main
subject and background (Multi-area White Balance).
