Taking a photo of a bright scene that also includes dark shadows? Use HDR (High Dynamic Range) mode. The camera captures multiple exposure levels and combines them into a single photo for vibrant colors and more detail in both light and dark areas.

To set HDR mode (off, always on, or auto mode), swipe the viewfinder right, and touch .

HDR is best for:

• Landscapes with bright sky and shaded hills or foliage
• Outdoor portraits with lots of contrast
• Backlit scenes with dark shadows and streams of sunlight
• When both the camera and subject are stationary

Do not use HDR for:

• Action shots
• Low-light indoor photos
• When you want to use the flash or the front camera

When the camera detects a high contrast scene, it automatically goes into HDR mode, and HDR appears in the viewfinder. Consider whether HDR mode would improve the photo or not.

Lower resolution photos and videos take up less space, but have lower image quality.

1. Swipe the viewfinder right to see settings.
2. Touch > Widescreen.

   • To print 5"x7" or 8"x10" photos, use 4:3 standard mode.
   • In general, use smaller file sizes (MP) for photos you'll share; use larger sizes for photos you'll print or edit.
