Shooting Settings6
• During HDR Capture, pressing the 3 button while an image is being 
saved cancels the process and saves the image as a standard image.
• HDR Capture is fixed to [Auto] and [Auto Align] is set to O (On) when the 
capture mode is set to Z (Night Scene HDR) of H (Scene) mode.
• You can set the [HDR Capture] setting 
from the [A Rec. Mode 2] menu (p.87). If 
you use the menu, you can also set the 
[Auto Align] setting.
• When both [Shake Reduction] and [Auto Align] are set to on, be careful of the 
following points.
- Make sure to hold the camera firmly so that the composition of the picture 
does not change while the three images are taken. If there is a great 
difference of the composition between three images, [Auto Align] may not 
be possible.
- Images taken with HDR Capture are susceptible to camera shake and blur. 
Be sure to set a higher shutter speed and a higher ISO sensitivity.
- When the ISO sensitivity is set to AUTO, the sensitivity can be raised more 
easily than normal.
- [Auto Align] may not be possible for lenses that have a focal length 
exceeding 100 mm.
- When the entire subject is checkered or has a uniform surface, [Auto Align] 
may not be possible.

Shooting Settings6 Reduces distortions and lateral chromatic aberrations occurring due to 
lens properties.
 Distortion
Distortion is the phenomenon in which the center of the image appears 
inflated (barrel distortion) or the center of the image appears pinched 
(pincushion distortion). Distortion occurs more easily when using a 
zoom lens or a small diameter lens, and straight walls or the horizon in 
the image appear curved.
 Lateral chromatic aberration
Lateral chromatic aberration is the phenomenon in which the 
magnification of the image varies according to the colors (wavelengths 
of light) when a picture was taken, and may cause a blurred image. 
Chromatic aberration occurs more easily at shorter focal lengths.

close-up ring or rear converter that is attached between the camera and the 
lens.
• The shooting speed for continuous shooting may be slower when the Lens 
Correction function is activated.
• The effects of the Lens Correction function may be barely noticeable in some 
cases due to the shooting conditions or other factors.
• When a compatible lens is attached and the file format is set to [RAW] or 
[RAW+], the correction information is saved as a RAW file parameter and you 
can select [On] or [Off] when developing the RAW images. (p.262) 
• You can also set [Distortion Correction] and [Lat-Chromatic-Ab Adj] in [Lens 
Correction] of the [A Rec. Mode 3] menu (p.88).
