A My Colors mode easily changes the colors in an image when it is
shot, allowing you to alter the balance between red, green and blue,
transform pale or tanned skin or change a color specified in the
LCD monitor into a different color. Since they work with both stills
and movies, these modes let you enjoy producing various image or
movie effects.
However, depending on the shooting conditions, the images may
appear rough or you may not get the expected color. Before you try
to photograph important subjects, we highly recommend that you
shoot trial images and check the results.
Moreover, the camera will record both the My Colors image and the
original unaltered image if you set [Save Original] (
) to [On]
when shooting still images.
