Advanced (Recording pictures)

-[SPORTS]

Set here when you want to take pictures of sports scenes or other fast-moving events.

Note

This mode is suitable for taking pictures of subjects at distances of 5 m (16.4 feet) or more.

[INTELLIGENT ISO] is activated, and maximum ISO sensitivity level becomes [ISO800].

.[NIGHT PORTRAIT]

This allows you to take pictures of a person and the background with near real-life brightness.

Technique for Night portrait mode

Open the flash (the flash setting will be [ ], indicating a compulsory flash).

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

Ask the subject not to move while taking a picture.

We recommend rotating the zoom lever to Wide (1k) and being about 1.5 m (4.92 feet) from the subject when taking a picture.

Note

The focus range is 0.8 m (2.62 feet) (Wide)/1.2 m (3.94 feet) (Tele) to 5 m (16.4 feet).

The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal processing. This is not a malfunction.

Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark places.

The initial setting for [AF MODE] is [š].

Technique for Night scenery mode

When the camera is set to [STABILIZER] and there is very little jitter, or if [STABILIZER] is set to [OFF], shutter speed may slow down up to 8 seconds. We recommend using the tripod and the self-timer for taking picture.

The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal processing. This is not a malfunction.
