Procedure
PLAY mode * Snapshot Screen * [MENU] * PLAY Tab * Lighting
You can use this setting to optimize the balance between bright areas and dark areas 
in existing images.
NOTE
• Correcting the lighting when shooting produces better results (page 85).
• Altering the lighting of an image causes the original image and the new (altered) 
version to be stored as separate files.
• When you display an altered image on the camera’s monitor screen, the date and 
time indicates when the image was originally recorded, not when the image was 
altered.
Procedure
PLAY mode * Snapshot Screen * [MENU] * PLAY Tab * Red Eye
Using the flash to shoot at night or in a dimly lit room can cause red spots inside the 
eyes of people who are in the image. This is caused when the light from the flash 
reflects off of the retina of the eye. Red eye correction corrects the eye colors of 
subjects to their normal colors when red eye occurs while using the flash.
NOTE
• The original snapshot is retained in memory and not deleted.
• Red eye correction may not be possible in the case of small faces or profiles.
• Red eye correction may not produce the desired effect under certain conditions.

5.Use [8] and [2] to select either “1” or “2” and then press [SET].
6.First, shoot an image that includes the subject 
you want to extract.
• Shoot an image in which the subject is as large as 
possible. If you selected “2” for the “Number of Shots” 
setting, the images should include some easily 
identifiable reference point that you can use for later 
alignment in step 7 below.
• If you selected “Moving Subject” the camera will record multiple subject 
images. Do not move the camera until shooting is complete.
• If you selected “1” for the “Number of Shots” setting, this procedure is complete 
with this step. The camera will extract the subject and display it on the monitor 
screen. If you selected “Moving Subject” in step 3, the subject image will be 
moving on the display.
• Even if you select “1” for the “Number of Shots” setting, certain conditions can 
cause the setting to switch automatically to “2”.
• Flash is turned off automatically at this time.
7.Next, compose the image again, this time without 
the subject you want to extract. Take care so the 
image composition here is as close as possible 
to the image composition in step 6. This second 
image will let the camera know what part of the 
image in step 3 needs to be cropped.
• A semi-transparent view of the image you shot in step 
3 (which includes the subject) will be visible on the monitor screen to help you 
compose the background image properly.
To shoot under these 
conditions:Select this option:
2The subject against a 
complex backgroundYou need to shoot twice to extract the subject.
1The subject against a plain 
(no pattern) backgroundYou need to shoot only once to extract the subject. 
If you select this option, you will not need to 
perform steps 7 and 8 of the procedure below.
