When taking pictures in dark places with
low light, you can take pictures which are
brighter than normal by selecting a setting
even slower than the slowest setting of the
shutter speed.
• The slow shutter speeds you can select
are: [1/8–], [1/4–], [1/2–] and [1–].
• This is effective if you want to take bright
pictures of both a night landscape and a
subject using [NIGHT PORTRAIT] (P48)
in scene mode.
