Help Guide

You cannot check the following effects on the shooting screen, because the product
processes the image after the shot. Also, you cannot shoot another image until image
processing is finished. You cannot use these effects with movies.
[Soft Focus]
[HDR Painting]
[Rich-tone Mono.]
[Miniature]
[Watercolor]
[Illustration]
In the case of [HDR Painting] and [Rich-tone Mono.], the shutter is released three times
for one shot. Be careful about the following:
Use this function when the subject is motionless or does not flash light.
Do not change the composition before shooting.
When the contrast of the scene is low or when significant camera-shake or subject blur
has occurred, you may not be able to obtain good HDR images. If the product detects
such a situation, / appear on the recorded image to inform you of this
situation. If necessary, change the composition or otherwise adjust the settings, be
careful of blurring, and shoot again.
