• The shutter may be kept closed (Max: about 8 seconds) after taking a picture with
slow shutter speed, but it is not a malfunction.
• When taking a picture in a dark place, the noise may appear. To avoid the noise,
we recommend you to set the picture adjustment to [NATURAL]. (P57)
Recording images (advanced)
The Night Portrait mode combines the
electronic flash with a "slow shutter" mode.
This unique feature allows you to photograph
3
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, about 30 cm – 2.1 m)
We recommend you to set the zoom lever
towards W.
