Shooting Backlit Scenes

When shooting a scene having both the bright and dark areas, use the

<

G

> (HDR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this

mode, three consecutive shots are taken at different exposures. This results

in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the clipped

shadows caused by backlighting.

Shooting Tips

Hold the camera firmly.

During shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily. In this mode, three

shots are aligned and merged into a single image. However, if there is

significant misalignment in any of the three shots due to camera shake,

they may not align properly in the final image.

Compared to other shooting modes, the shooting range will be smaller.
