Shooting Functions > Flash Flash settings Set the flash mode, exposure value, flash brightness, or multi flash when you attach an external flash to the camera. You can also set wireless sync to control internal or external flash. The flash settings are supported only when you attach a compatible, optional external flash (SEF-580A). Option Description • A-TTL: In the A-TTL (Advanced Through The Lens) mode, Flash Mode Setting external flash To set external flash, In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → External Flash Settings → an option. the camera measures the light reflected by the subject through the lens. Then, it calculates the optimum exposure based on the exposure value and shutter speed. • Manual Flash: The flash emits the full amount of light or the flash intensity can be adjusted manually. • Multi Flash: When you press [Shutter], the flash fires multiple times based on the number you have set. Flash EV Set the exposure of the flash when the flash mode is A-TTL. Flash Output Set the brightness of the flash when the flash mode is Manual Flash. Multi Flash Settings Set the count, brightness, or frequency of the flash when the flash mode is Multi Flash. If data can be exchanged between the camera and the flash, the settings for the external flash can be adjusted on the camera or the flash. Your previous options will be applied. 111 Shooting Functions > Flash Setting wireless sync for internal or external flash Set wireless sync to control internal and external flash units remotely via wireless signals. The remote system consists of a master flash that is mounted on the camera and one or more slave flash units. A slave flash is assigned to one of three groups: A, B, or C. To set wireless sync, In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → Internal Wireless Flash or External Wireless Flash → an option. * Default Option Description Use Wireless Flash Set to use wireless sync. (Off*, On) Channel Select channels for wireless sync. There are four remote channels available to allow multiple remote systems to operate at the same time. Master and slave flash units, in the same remote system, must be set to the same channel. (Ch. 1, Ch. 2, Ch. 3, Ch. 4) Group Flash Mode Set the flash mode for group A, B, or C. Changes to the flash mode must be made on the master flash. The changes are then applied to slave group A, B, or C, and the slave groups operate as a remote system of the flash mode (TTL or manual) according to the settings for the master flash. • A-TTL: Set the exposure of the flash when the flash mode is A-TTL. • Manual Flash: Set the brightness of the flash when the flash mode is Manual Flash. • Off: Do not fire the flash. • You cannot select External Flash Settings when you use the External Wireless Flash function. • For information about using the wireless sync feature with an external flash, refer to the optional external flash’s (SEF-580A) user manual. 112 Shooting Functions > Flash Locking the flash intensity When the flash mode is set to A-TTL, the camera automatically calculates the optimum exposure through pre-flash. If the exposure is not calculated correctly, use the FEL function. The pre-flash fires on the area that you set and the flash intensity is locked. To lock the flash intensity, Set the function of [a] to FEL → focus on the exposure area → press [a]. 113 Shooting Functions Metering Metering Shooting Functions > The metering mode refers to the way in which a camera measures the quantity of light. The camera measures the amount of light in a scene, and in many of its modes, uses the measurement to adjust various settings. For example, if a subject looks darker than its actual color, the camera captures an overexposed photo of it. If a subject looks lighter than its actual color, the camera captures an underexposed photo of it. Multi The Multi mode calculates the amount of light in multiple areas. When light is sufficient or insufficient, the camera adjusts the exposure by averaging the overall brightness of the scene. This mode is suitable for general photos. The brightness and overall mood of the photo can also be affected by how the camera measures the amount of light. Select an appropriate setting for a shooting condition. To set a metering option, In Shooting mode, press [N] → an option. 114 Shooting Functions > Metering Center-weighted Spot The Center-weighted mode calculates a broader area than the Spot mode does. It sums up the amount of light in the center portion of the shot (60–80 %) and that of the rest of the shot (20–40 %). It is recommended for situations where there is a slight difference in brightness between a subject and a background or an area of the subject is large compared to the overall composition of the photo. The Spot mode calculates the amount of light in the center. When you capture a photo in conditions where there is a strong backlight behind a subject, the camera adjusts the exposure so as to shoot a subject correctly. For example, when you select the Multi mode in a strong backlight condition, the camera calculates that the overall amount of light is abundant, which results in a darker photo. The Spot mode can prevent this situation as it calculates the amount of light in a designated area. The subject is in bright color while the background is dark. The Spot mode is recommended for a situation like this where a huge difference in the exposure exists between a subject and a background. 115 Shooting Functions > Metering Measuring the exposure value of the focus area When this function is turned on, the camera automatically sets an optimal exposure by calculating the brightness of the focus area. This function is only available when you select Spot metering or Multi metering, and Selection AF. To set this function, In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → Link AE to AF Point → an option. 116 Shooting Functions Dynamic Range Dynamic Range Shooting Functions > This function automatically corrects the loss of bright detail that can occur due to shading differences in the photo. * Default Icon Description Off*: Do not use Dynamic Range. To set Dynamic Range options, In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → Dynamic Range → an option. Smart Range+: Correct the loss of bright detail. You cannot set ISO 100. HDR: Capture several photos with different exposures, and then combine them to automatically create a single image. • To set the exposure adjustment value press [e](right), and then select Low, Medium, or High. • You cannot set an ISO option higher than ISO 3200. • Dynamic Range options cannot be set with Picture Wizard Without Dynamic Range effect With Dynamic Range effect options at the same time. 117 Shooting Functions Exposure Exposure compensation compensation Shooting Functions > The camera automatically sets the exposure by measuring the levels of light from the photo’s composition and the position of a subject. If the exposure set by the camera is higher or lower than you expected, you can adjust the exposure value manually. The exposure value is adjustable in ±5 increments. The camera displays the exposure warning in red for each step beyond ±5 range. To adjust the exposure value, while holding down [B], scroll command dial 1 or 2. You can also adjust the exposure value by pressing [f], and then selecting EV. Exposure adjustment value Exposure warning Standard exposure index Exposure level indicator Increased exposure (brighter) Decreased exposure (darker) +2 -2 Original 118 Shooting Functions > Exposure compensation Using Framing Mode When you adjust the aperture value or shutter speed, the exposure changes according to the settings, so the display may darken. With this function on, the brightness of the display is constant regardless of the settings, so you can better frame your shot. To use Framing Mode, In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → Framing Mode → an option. Using the brightness adjustment guide Adjust the brightness using the selected area as a reference. To adjust the brightness, In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → Brightness Adjust Guide → On → select the reference area → adjust the brightness. • This feature is available only in Program, Aperture priority, or Shutter priority mode.

In Shooting mode, press [m] → b → Overexposure Guide → an option. 119 Shooting Functions Exposure/Focus lock lock Exposure/Focus Shooting Functions > When you cannot achieve an appropriate exposure because of a strong brightness contrast or you want to capture a photo on which the subject is out of the auto focus area, lock the focus or exposure and then capture a photo. After locking the focus and changing to a desired composition, measure the exposure by pressing [Shutter] halfway, and then press [Shutter] to take a photo. For example, to take a photo with the focus locked, set the focus frame to where you want to and press the [Shutter] halfway to focus. Then, press [a] to lock the focus. To take a photo with the exposure locked, set the focus frame to where you want to and press the [Shutter] halfway to measure the exposure.

A system that automatically focuses the camera lens on the subject. Your camera uses the contrast to focus automatically. Ad-Hoc network AMOLED (Active-matrix organic light-emitting diode)/ LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) An ad-hoc network is a temporary connection for sharing files or an internet connection and between computers and devices. AdobeRGB Adobe RGB is used for commercial printing and has a larger color range than sRGB. Its wider range of colors helps you to easily edit photos on a computer. AMOLED is a visual display that is very thin and light, as it does not need backlighting. LCD is a visual display commonly used in consumer electronics. This display needs a separate backlight, such as CCFL or LED, to reproduce colors. Aperture The aperture controls the amount of light that reaches the camera’s sensor. AEB (Auto Exposure Bracket) This feature automatically captures several images at different exposures to help you capture a properly-exposed image. Bluetooth This feature allows you to exchange files with other devices. AEL/AFL (Auto Exposure Lock/Auto Focus Lock) These features help you lock the exposure or focus on which you want to focus or calculate the exposure. 207 Appendix > Glossary Camera shake (Blur) Composition If the camera is moved while the shutter is open, the entire image may appear blurred. This occurs more often when the shutter speed is slow. Prevent camera shake by raising the sensitivity, using the flash, or using a faster shutter speed. Alternatively, use a tripod or the OIS function to stabilize the camera. Composition in photography means arranging objects in a photo. Usually, abiding by the rule of thirds leads to a good composition. Cloud Computing Cloud computing is a technology that allows you to store data on remote servers and to use them from a device with internet access. Color space The range of colors that the camera can see. Color temperature Color Temperature is a measurement in degrees Kelvin (K) that indicates the hue of a specific type of light source. As the color temperature increases, the color of the light source has a more bluish quality. As the color temperature decreases, the color of the light source has a more reddish quality. At 5,500 degrees Kelvin, the color of the light source is similar to the sun at midday. DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) A specification to define a file format and file system for digital cameras created by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA). Depth of field The distance between the nearest and farthest points that can be acceptably focused in a photograph. Depth of field varies with lens aperture, focal length, and distance from the camera to the subject. Selecting a smaller aperture, for example, will increase the depth of field and blur the background of a composition. Electronic first curtain shutter The sensor acts as the first curtain of the shutter. With this function, the shutter reacts faster because no process is needed to operate the mechanical curtain. 208 Appendix > Glossary EV (Exposure Value) Flash All the combinations of the camera’s shutter speed and lens aperture that result in the same exposure. A speed light that helps to create adequate exposure in low-light conditions. EV Compensation Focal length This feature allows you to quickly adjust the exposure value measured by the camera, in limited increments, to improve the exposure of your photos. The distance from the middle of the lens to its focal point(in millimeters). Longer focal lengths result in narrower angles of view and the subject is magnified. Shorter focal lengths result in wider angles of view. Exif (Exchangeable Image File Format) A specification to define an image file format for digital cameras created by the Japan Electronic Industries Development Association (JEIDA). Exposure The amount of light allowed to reach the camera’s sensor. Exposure is controlled by a combination of the shutter speed, the aperture value, and ISO sensitivity. Histogram A graphical representation of the brightness of an image. The horizontal axis represents the brightness and the vertical axis represents the number of pixels. High points at the left (too dark) and right (too bright) on the histogram indicate a photo that is improperly exposed. HEVC High-efficiency Video Coding format, established by international standard organizations ISO-IEC and ITU-T. This codec is capable of providing good video quality at low bit rates. 209 Appendix > Glossary Image sensor Metering The physical part of a digital camera that contains a photosite for each pixel in the image. Each photosite records the brightness of the light that strikes it during an exposure. Common sensor types are CCD (Chargecoupled Device) and CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor). The metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the quantity of light to set the exposure. IP (Internet protocol) address A system that manually focuses the camera lens on the subject. You can use the focus ring to focus on a subject. An IP address is a unique number that is assigned to every device that is connected to the internet. ISO sensitivity The sensitivity of the camera to light, based on the equivalent film speed used in a film camera. At higher ISO sensitivity settings, the camera uses a higher shutter speed, which can reduce blur caused by camera shake and low light. However, images with high sensitivity are more susceptible to noise. MF (Manual Focus) MJPEG (Motion JPEG) A video format which is compressed as a JPEG image. MPO (Multi Picture Object) An image file format that contains multiple images in a file. An MPO file provides a 3D effect on MPO-compatible displays, such as 3D TVs or 3D monitors. JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) A lossy method of compression for digital images. JPEG images are compressed to reduce their overall file size with minimal deterioration of the image resolution. 210 Appendix > Glossary Noise PAL (Phase Alternate Line) Misinterpreted pixels in a digital image that may appear as misplaced or random, bright pixels. Noise usually occurs when photos are shot with a high sensitivity or when a sensitivity is automatically set in a dark place. A video color encoding standard used in numerous countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. NFC (Near Field Communication) NFC is a set of standards for radio communication at very close proximity. You can use NFC-enabled devices to activate features or exchange data with other devices. NTSC (National Television System Committee) A video color encoding standard used most commonly in Japan, North America, the Philippines, South America, South Korea, and Taiwan. Optical zoom This is a general zoom which can enlarge images with a lens and does not deteriorate quality of images. Quality An expression of the rate of compression used in a digital image. Higher quality images have a lower rate of compression, which usually results in a larger file size. RAW (CCD raw data) The original, unprocessed data, collected directly from the camera’s image sensor. White Balance, contrast, saturation, sharpness, and other data can be manipulated with editing software before the image is compressed into a standard file format. Resolution The number of pixels present in a digital image. High resolution images contain more pixels and typically show more detail than low resolution images. 211 Appendix > Glossary Shutter speed White Balance (Color balance) Shutter speed refers to the amount of time it takes to open and close the shutter, and it is an important factor in the brightness of a photo, as it controls the amount of light which passes through the aperture before it reaches the image sensor. A fast shutter speed allows less time to let light in and the photo becomes darker and more easily freezes subjects in motion. An adjustment of the intensities of colors (typically the primary colors red, green, and blue), in an image. The goal of adjusting the White Balance, or color balance, is to correctly render the colors in an image. sRGB (Standard RGB) International standard of color space established by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). This is defined from color space for PC monitors and is also used as the standard color space for Exif. Wi-Fi Wi-Fi is a technology that allows electronic devices to exchange data wirelessly over a network. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) WPS is a technology that secures wireless home networks. Vignetting A reduction of an image’s brightness or saturation at the periphery (outer edges) compared to the center of the image. Vignetting can draw interest to subjects positioned in the center of an image. 212 Appendix Optional accessories You can purchase the following optional items: Lens, External flash, Shutter release (micro USB type), Vertical grip, External microphone, Rechargeable battery, Battery charger, Camera bag, Camera case, Memory card, Filter, USB cable, HDMI cable, Strap • To locate the type, image and availability of accessories, visit the Samsung website. • Before purchasing accessories, make sure they are compatible with your camera. • Use only Samsung-approved accessories.
