Sony XPERIA Z3v - Manual (Page 73)

Touch a specific area on the camera screen to set the area of focus. Continuous autofocus is off. Touch and
hold the camera screen until the yellow focus frame turns blue, indicating that the focus is set. The photo is
taken when you release your finger.
Object tracking
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.

increasing the ISO sensitivity.
Auto

50

200

400

800

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.
