When you select an object by touching it in the viewfinder, the camera tracks it for you.
This setting is only available in Manual capturing mode.
HDR
Use the HDR (High Dynamic Range) setting to take a photo against strong backlight or in
conditions where the contrast is sharp. HDR compensates for the loss of detail and
produces a picture that is representative of both dark and bright areas.
This setting is only available in Manual capturing mode.
ISO
You can reduce image blurring caused by dark conditions or moving subjects by
increasing the ISO sensitivity.
Auto
Sets the ISO sensitivity automatically.
50
Sets the ISO sensitivity to 50.
100
Sets the ISO sensitivity to 100.
200
Sets the ISO sensitivity to 200.
400
Sets the ISO sensitivity to 400.
800
Sets the ISO sensitivity to 800.
1600
Sets the ISO sensitivity to 1600.
3200

This setting is only available in Manual capturing mode.
Metering
This function automatically determines a well-balanced exposure by measuring the
amount of light striking the image you want to capture.
Center
Measures the center of the image, and determines the exposure based on the brightness of the subject
there.
Spot
Adjusts the exposure in a very small part of the image that you want to capture.
Face
Measures the amount of light on the face, and adjusts the exposure so that the face is neither too dark or too
bright.
Multi
Divides the image into multiple regions, and measures each region to determine a well-balanced exposure.
This setting is only available in Manual capturing mode.
Image stabilizer
When taking a photo, it can be difficult to hold the device steady. The stabilizer helps you
by compensating for small movements of the hand.
This setting is only available in Manual capturing mode.
