DON’T FORGET: 2ND CURTAIN FLASH

Instead of firing a burst of flash at the beginning of the exposure, the
flash fires at the end to ensure people appear sharp and in focus.
Taking pictures at night can really show the
atmosphere of a place or location, and also
make great memory snaps to show friends
and family back home; from a modern city
scene with hundreds of bright lights to an
after-hours BBQ at a friend’s place, your flash
or high ISO ability will come to the fore. Using
a wide-angle, include some of the background
in the shot to give a sense of place and scale.
The dedicated Night mode will allow you
to just point and shoot and sort the flash
settings. Alternatively, switch your ISO to 3200
to make the camera more sensitive to light
and avoid using flash altogether and use more
of the ambient light.

NIGHTTIME
High ISO Noise Reduction
automatically removes
any image ‘grain’ that can
appear at high ISO settings
and therefore improve
image quality.
If the background of your night shot goes dark and loses detail, in the
Scene mode use the Backlight option.
