HDR (High Dynamic Range) Shooting

You can shoot photos with a wide dynamic range where clipping in

highlights and shadows has been reduced, and photos that appear like

paintings. This is suited for scenes such as still-life and landscape. In

HDR shooting, one shot is taken using three images shot with different

exposures (negative exposure, standard exposure, positive exposure),

and they are combined into a single image automatically. Shot HDR

images are recorded in JPEG quality.

* HDR stands for High Dynamic Range.

Set to HDR.

 Select [HDR Mode] in the [Shooting menu], and in the dialog box

that appears, specify the required settings and click the [OK]

button.

 [Adjust dynamic range]: Sets the range of adjustment for

dynamic range. Select from [Disable HDR], [Auto], [±1], [±2], and

[±3]. When selecting [Auto], the range of adjustment will be set

automatically depending on the image's overall tonal range.

The higher the number, the wider the dynamic range will be.

 [Effect] : Selects the finishing effect. For specific finishing

effects, refer to the pages about HDR (High Dynamic Range)

shooting in the Instruction Manual provided with your camera.

 [Continuous HDR]: If [1 shot only] is selected, HDR shooting is

cancelled automatically after you finish shooting. If you select

[Every shot], HDR shooting is continued until you select [Disable

HDR] in [Adjust dynamic range].

 [Save source images] : To save the three shot images

and the completed HDR image, select [All images]. To save only

the completed HDR image, select [HDR image only].
