Basic picture settings
CONTRAST
The contrast setting, i.e. the difference between light and dark
image sections, determines whether an image comes across as
“flat” or “brilliant”. Increasing or decreasing this difference,
meaning that some image sections are rendered with more light or
less light, impacts on contrast.
SHARPNESS
Rendering part of the image in complete sharpness, i.e. focusing
on the main subject, is prerequisite for a great picture. The
impression of sharpness in a picture is largely determined by edge
sharpness, i.e. by how small the transition between light/dark is at
edges in the picture. Expanding or reducing these areas will
therefore change the impression of sharpness.
COLOR SATURATION
The saturation factor in color images determines, whether colors in
the picture appear “pale” and pastel-like or “bright” and colorful.
While you can’t do anything about weather conditions (clear/
misty), you can change the way an image is rendered.

You can choose to save your images in color or monochrome,
provided you take the pictures (also) in JPG format.

• The submenu option Saturation is not available and appears
grayed out if you choose Monochrome.
