Taking Pictures using Night Portrait Mode
The Night Portrait mode combines the
electronic flash with a “slow shutter” mode.
This unique feature allows you to photograph
close subjects against the natural night
background. Since the shutter speed is slow,
we highly recommend using a tripod to steady
the camera.
The subject should be positioned within the
available flash range. When setting to
ISO100, (Tele:
0.98feet (30 cm) - 4.59 feet
(140 cm), Wide: 0.98 feet (30 cm) - 7.87 feet
(2.4 m)) .
We recommend pressing the zoom button
(W) before taking a picture.
