Setting the image processing
Notes
• When a zoom feature other than optical zoom is used, the [Toy Camera] and
[Miniature] effects are not available.
• When [Partial Color] is selected, images may not retain the selected color,
depending on the subject or shooting condition.
• When the exposure mode is set to Auto Mode, Sweep Panorama, or Tele-zoom
Continuous Priority AE, or when [Quality] is set to [RAW] or [RAW & JPEG],
Picture Effect cannot be used.
• When [HDR Painting], [Miniature], [Rich-tone Mono.] or [Soft Focus] is selected,
you cannot confirm the effect before shooting. You cannot also set the drive mode.
• When the contrast of the scene is low or when significant camera shake or subject
blur has occurred with [HDR Painting] or [Rich-tone Mono.] selected, you may not
obtain good HDR images. If the camera detects such situation, appears on the
recorded image to inform you of this situation. Shoot again, as necessary,
recomposing or paying attention to the blur.
You can select the style to be used to perform image processing from
among 13 styles, and you can also adjust the contrast, saturation, and
sharpness for each Creative Style.
You can also adjust the exposure (shutter speed and aperture), unlike Scene
Selection where the camera adjusts the exposure.
