This merges pictures with a high resolution from multiple recorded images.

This function is suitable for recording subjects that do not move.

When [Handheld High-Res] is set to on, you can record pictures with a higher resolution without using a tripod.

The picture after merging can be saved in RAW or JPEG format.

[Motion Blur Processing]

Sets the correction method to use when the subject moved.


[MODE1]: This gives priority to High Resolution mode, therefore subject blur appears as an afterimage in the picture.

[MODE2]: This reduces afterimage from subject blur, but cannot obtain the same High Resolution mode effect in the corrected range.

bullet02When [Handheld High-Res] is [ON], [Motion Blur Processing] is fixed to [MODE2].


  1. Decide on the composition and then fix the camera in place.

bullet02If blurring is detected, the High Resolution mode icon (A) blinks.

bullet02When [Handheld High-Res] is set to [ON], the icon changes to [icon_high-res-3].

bullet02In High Resolution mode, recording will be performed using the following settings:

– [Shutter Type]: Fixed to [ELEC.]

– Minimum aperture value: F11

– Shutter speed: 1 second to 1/32000 of a second

– ISO sensitivity: Upper limit to [1600]

– Focus mode: [AFS]/[MF]

bullet02Hold the camera firmly during handheld recording so that the camera does not shake. Recording may fail if there is a lot of shaking.

bullet02Image merging can take a long time with handheld recording.

bullet02When you record in an extremely bright location or under lighting such as fluorescent or LED lighting, the coloring or brightness of the image may change or horizontal stripes may appear on the screen.

Lowering the shutter speed may reduce the effect of horizontal stripes.

bullet02Devices other than this camera may not be able to play back images recorded using High Resolution mode.
