Snap shot

Q10
Is there anything I need to keep in mind when using HDR, HDR Art, or Multi SR Zoom, or the BEST SHOT High Speed Night Scene, High Speed Night Scene and Portrait, or High Speed Anti Shake scenes?
A10
HDR, HDR Art, Multi SR Zoom, High Speed Night Scene, High Speed Night Scene and Portrait, and High Speed Anti Shake all use High Speed CS (continuous shutter) to shoot a series of images, which are then combined into a final snapshot. Keep the following points in mind when shooting with these scenes.

• Hold the camera as still as possible while shooting is in progress. 
  Too much movement makes it impossible for the camera to correctly combine the images it shoots into
  a final snapshot.
• The camera will not be able to combine images properly if a subject is moving while shooting is in progress.
• HDR, HDR Art, and HS Night Scene and Portrait perform anti-shake correction to compensate for camera 
   movement while shooting. This results in an image area that is narrower than normal.
• If surroundings are extremely dark during hand-held shooting with High Speed Night Scene or High Speed
  Night Scene and Portrait, the camera may not be able to shoot at proper brightness due to insufficient
  exposure. If this happens, shooting with a tripod is recommended.  The camera will automatically detect
  when it is mounted on a tripod and shoot a single image (instead of a series of High Speed CS images) at
  a longer exposure time.
• Anti shake will not operate correctly if you mount the camera on a tripod while using High Speed Anti Shake.
• Except for High Speed Night Scene and Portrait, flash is disabled when shooting with these scenes.
• The camera will take longer to process the images shot with these scenes than regular (non-High Speed)
   snapshots.


* When shooting with there scenes, certain conditions may make it impossible to obtain the desired results.
