Setting the Exposure Time (TIME EXPOSURE)

If you set the camera to TIME EXPOSURE, when you shoot, the shutter stays open for the time specified.

By setting an exposure time, you can capture the track of moving subjects such as fireworks and car lights, when you shoot a night scene. You can select an exposure time of 1, 2, 4 or 8 seconds.

At purchase, the setting is OFF.

When the camera is set to Exposure Time, the shutter speed is slowed, so the camera is subject to camera shake. Hold the camera firmly with both hands when you shoot.

Select [TIME EXPOSURE] and then press
