PICTURE STYLE

With so many features and settings available, even the best photographers might occasionally have doubts as to whether all the available camera settings are optimal for the shot.

The Picture Style feature comes to the rescue, providing a number of user-friendly presets, including standard, neutral and landscape, which allows fine-tuning of the images the camera produces.

Select EOS cameras have Picture Style Auto that automatically adjusts color tones based on the camera’s scene detection technology. These presets can be used the same way one would use different types of film, and more can be created using Canon’s included Picture Style Editor Software.

Picture Style allows you to create exactly the image you want. Create the image you desire from the scenes you see

SIX PRESET PICTURE STYLES ARE AVAILABLE WITH EOS DIGITAL

1. Standard: The “Standard” Picture Style is set to produce the vivid colors and contrast level that people tend to prefer for general photographic subjects. It provides the optimal sharpness for printing image without post-processing and makes it possible to produce beautifully finished prints for a broad array of subjects, from snapshots to sports shooting, with no retouch.



2. Portrait: People are one of the most difficult subject to reproduce photographically because skin color can vary significantly depending on lighting conditions and exposure balance. The “Portrait” Picture Style adjusts the color tone magenta-to-yellow close to red range and adds brightness. Skin color is reproduced light pink with still the correct exposure. It is particularly well-suited for shooting women and children. To keep the soft and natural feeling of skin, sharpness is set modestly.



3. Landscape: In photographic expression, deep blue sky and vibrant green leaves call for more vivid colors than in reality, for more impressive finish. The “Landscape” Picture Style changes the color respectively; blue to a vivid and deep color, green to a vivid and bright color.
This style also uses a stronger sharpness setting to bring out details in mountains, trees, buildings, and other things in the distance. A moving sight can be expressed in the strong impressive finish.



4. Neutral: The “Neutral“ setting is suitable for expressing subtle nuances within vivid colors, even for objects with considerable contrast, when wishing to convey delicate textures.

Contrast and saturation settings are moderated, so there is less risk of overexposure and color saturation compared to other styles, resulting in a more restrained and calmer expression.

Richer detail is retained as data, so corrections can easily be rendered using Digital Photo Professional or Adobe® Photoshop®, etc. for JPEG output as well.



5. Faithful: The “Faithful” setting enables reproduction of images that are colorimetrically almost identical to the actual colors shot under standard daylight conditions. By maintaining the colors of the subject, the colors remain true even in highlight areas, so the expression of the colors is strong, giving a reliable impression that is close to what is seen with the naked eye. The colors are absolutely true to life, ensuring faithful reproduction—no matter how sober or vivid.
This setting is also suitable for replicating existing photographs and product photography, where the original colors must be accurately expressed.



6. Monochrome: Monochrome photography is a means of boldly expressing form, light and shadow. The “Monochrome” Picture Style isn’t merely zero-saturation image processing; it’s a faithful successor to monochrome film. Sharpness is set relatively strongly. Sepia, blue or other toning effect is applicable to create a monochrome image in that color. Also, red, green or other filter effect can be applied to control the color. The “Monochrome” Picture Style can give you a thrill of monochrome shooting and bring to completion all within a camera.



Customization of Picture Style
By using “Detailed Setting” function, you can refine the six preset styles. Depending on shooting situations, it is possible to adjust the camera settings like Sharpness, Contrast, Saturation, Color tone and reflect the photographer’s color taste.
