Superior Auto
The camera automatically recognizes and evaluates the shooting conditions, and the
appropriate settings are set automatically. The camera shoots images with a wider range
of shooting functions than those of Intelligent Auto shooting, such as Auto HDR, and
chooses the best image.
• [Flash Mode] is set to [Flash Off], [Autoflash] or [Fill-flash].
• You can shoot even if the camera has not recognized the scene.
• When [Face Detection] is set to [Off], the [Portrait], [Backlight Portrait], [Night Portrait], and [Baby]
scenes are not recognized.
• When [Quality] is set to [RAW & JPEG], [Hand-held Twilight] and [Auto HDR] are not selected.
1 Set the shooting mode to (Superior
Auto).
2 Point the camera to the subject.
When the camera recognizes the subject and adjusts
itself for shooting conditions, the following information
appears on the screen: icon for recognized scene,
appropriate shooting function, the number of times the
shutter is released.
Recognized scene: (Night Scene), (Tripod Night
Scene), (Hand-held Twilight), (Night Portrait),
(Backlight), (Backlight Portrait), (Portrait),
(Landscape), (Macro), (Spotlight), (Low
Brightness), or (Baby).
Shooting function: Auto HDR, Slow Sync., Daylight
Sync., Slow Shutter
Icon for recognized scene
The number of times the shutter is
released
3 Adjust the focus and shoot the subject.
When the camera shoots multiple images, it automatically chooses and saves the appropriate
image. You can also save all the images by setting the [S. Auto Image Extract.] item
(page 116).
Notes
Shooting function
z What is the difference between [Superior Auto] and
[Intelligent Auto]?
In [Superior Auto] mode, the camera shoots continuously according to the recognized scene
and makes a composite image (Composite shooting). This allows the camera to perform
back-lit compensation and noise reduction automatically, and also obtain a higher quality
image than [Intelligent Auto].
However, the recording process takes longer than normal when making a composite image.
