Setting the image processing
(Contrast), (Saturation), and (Sharpness) can be adjusted for each
style box item.
(Vivid) The saturation and contrast are heightened for shooting
striking images of colorful scenes and subjects such as
flowers, spring greenery, blue sky, or ocean views.
(Neutral) The saturation and sharpness are lowered for capturing
images in a quiet tone. This is also suitable for capturing
image material to be modified with a computer.
(Clear) For capturing images in a clear tone with limpid colors in the
highlighted area, suitable for capturing radiant light.
(Deep) For capturing images with deep and dense color expressions,
suited to capturing the solid presence of the subject.
(Light) For capturing images with bright and uncomplicated color
expressions, suited to capturing refreshingly light ambience.
(Portrait) For shooting the skin color in a soft tone, ideally suited to
shooting portraits.
(Landscape) The saturation, contrast, and sharpness are heightened for
shooting vivid and crisp scenery. Distant landscapes also
stand out more.
(Sunset) For shooting the beautiful red of the setting sun.
(Night Scene) The contrast is attenuated for capturing a nightscape that is
more faithful to the real view.
(Autumn leaves) For capturing autumn scenes, vividly highlighting the red and
yellow of coloring leaves.
(Black & White) For shooting images in black and white monotone.
(Sepia) For capturing images in sepia monotone.
(Contrast) The higher the value selected, the more the difference of light
and shadow is accentuated, thus making an impact on an
image.
(Saturation) The higher the value selected, the more vivid the color. When
a lower value is selected, the color of the image is restrained
and subdued.
(Sharpness) Adjusts the sharpness. The higher the value selected, the
more the contours are accentuated, and the lower the value
selected, the more the contours are softened.
