Selecting this option displays sub-menu shown
at right. Choose from:
• Highlight BSS: picture with smallest area of
overexposure is selected.
• Shadow BSS: picture with smallest area of
underexposure is selected.
• Histogram BSS: of pictures with least under- and over-exposure,
camera chooses picture with overall exposure closest to optimum.
Camera takes fi ve shots each time shutter-release button is pressed,
but only picture that best meets selected criterion is saved. Flash
turns off automatically and focus and auto white balance for all pho-
tos are determined by the fi rst picture in each series. Recommended
for subjects containing areas of high contrast, when it is diffi cult to
set exposure correctly.
