∫Technique for Night portrait mode

• Use the flash.

• Since the shutter speed becomes slow, we recommend using a tripod.

• Keep the subject still for about 1 second when taking a picture.

• We recommend taking pictures by rotating the zoom lever to Wide (1k) and being at a distance about 1.5 m (4.92 feet) from the subject.

•The focus range is 1.2 m (3.94 feet) – 5 m (16.4 feet).

(Refer to P41 for the flash control range.)

•The shutter may be kept closed (max. about 1 sec.) after taking a picture because of signal conditioning, but it is not a malfunction.

•When you take pictures in dark places, noise may become visible.

•When the flash setting is set to Forced

OFF [], press 1 to set to Slow sync./

Red-eye reduction [ ]. (The flash setting is fixed to Slow sync./Red-eye

reduction [ ] and the flash is always activated.)

•The ISO sensitivity is fixed to [AUTO].

This mode allows you to take beautiful pictures of fireworks exploding in the night sky. The shutter speed is automatically adjusted for taking pictures of fireworks.
