Long Exposure Mode (Time Exposure)

By extending the shutter speed (the time the shutter remains open during an exposure), you can photograph darker subjects like a night scene or a moody indoor scene. Long shutter speeds of 8, 4, and 2 seconds can be selected.

To avoid camera shake, use of a tripod is recommended when using time exposures.
