B Notes About Multiple Exp. Lighten
• Do not rotate the mode dial or insert a new memory card until shooting ends.
• Use batteries with a sufficient amount of charge remaining to prevent the camera from
turning off during shooting.
y M m Multiple exp. Lighten
• The camera automatically captures moving subjects at regular intervals, compares each
image and composites only their bright areas, and then saves them as one image. Light
trails such as the flow of car lights or motion of stars are captured.
• On the screen displayed when m Multiple exp. Lighten is selected, select
n Nightscape + light trails or W Star trails.
• The screen may turn off during the shooting interval. The power-on lamp flashes while
the screen is off.
• To end shooting before it automatically ends, press the k button.
• When you have obtained the desired trails, end shooting. If you continue shooting,
details in the composited areas may be lost.
• When shooting faraway subjects such as airplanes or fireworks, setting the focus mode
to B (infinity) or m (manual focus) is recommended (A62).
• Exposure compensation cannot be used (A65).
