3.1.9.7

Effect

The Effect 

 setting enables you to apply a tone or color to your images to create an artistic 

effect.

Normal:

 Photographs are captured using standard settings. (default)

B&W: 

Pictures include only black, white and shades of gray. This is another easy way to add 

distinctiveness to your pictures.

Sepia:

 To create a warmer print tone use sepia toning. The shadows remain black while the 

mid-tones of the image are adjusted towards brown and orange colors. This produces warm, 
old-fashioned, artistic photographs.

Vivid:

 Brings out sharper and more vibrant colors. 

3.1.9.8

Exposure Value

This setting allows you to intentionally lighten or darken the entire image. Use this setting 
when the optimum brightness (exposure) cannot be obtained, for example, when the 
brightness between the subject and the background is not balanced or when the subject to 
photograph occupies only an extremely small part of the screen.

 EV BIAS:

 Press the left or right to adjust the EV from -2.0 to +2.0.

3.1.9.9

Metering

The camera has three built-in meter presets that you can use to optimize photo results in 
various lighting conditions.

 Center-weighted Average:

 The camera adjusts itself based on the average light 

measurement over the central region of the viewfinder. (default)

 Spot:

 The exposure is measured in a very small area at the center of the screen. It is 

possible to calculate the exposure of a subject without being affected by the surrounding 
environment.

 Multi:

 The camera adjusts itself based on the average light measurement over the entire 

region of the viewfinder.

3.1.9.10 Date Stamp

The Date Stamp option enables you to imprint a date mark on your printed images.

 The current date is imprinted on your image.

 Date imprinting is disabled. (default)
