How to use High Resolution Mode. - LUMIX S-Series

Applicable Recording modes



Applicable Shooting modes



This merges pictures with a high resolution from multiple recorded images. This function is suitable for recording subjects that do not move. Merged pictures will be saved as RAW files with a maximum image size of 96 M for models DC-S1 and DC-S1H, and 187 M for model DC-S1R.


Note:

  • Use a tripod to minimize camera shake.
  • The image stabilization function is automatically turned off.







Setting Items ([High Resolution Mode])



Settings
[Start] Starts High Resolution mode.
[Simul Record Normal Shot] Simultaneously takes pictures that are not merged when [ON] is set. The first picture will be saved with [Picture Size] set to [L].
[Shutter Delay] Sets the delay time from when the shutter button is pressed until the shutter is released.
[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.


Picture Quality/Image Size After Merging


  • The recording [Picture Quality] will be [RAW].
  • RAW images recorded in [High Resolution Mode] cannot be processed from [RAW Processing] in the [Playback] menu. Use the “SILKYPIX Developer Studio” software.
  • The image size will vary depending on the [Aspect Ratio] setting.
