∫Technique for Night portrait mode

• Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod and the self-timer for taking pictures.

• When [NIGHT PORTRAIT] is selected, keep the subject still for about 1 second after taking the picture.

•For information on the available flash range, see P66.
