Background Defocus
DSLR photographs are often beautiful
because they blur the background,
putting the emphasis on your subject.
Now our point-and-shoot cameras can
deliver this signature DSLR benefit. The
system takes two shots, identifies the
background and applies a defocused
background while keeping your subject
crisp and clear.

Backlight Correction HDR
Shooting high-contrast scenes can often
lead to washed out backgrounds
and/or details lost in shadow.
Backlight Correction HDR helps correct
for this by taking two pictures at
different exposure settings and
processing the best elements of both
into a single image for more natural
looking shots.
