x Shooting Candlelight Portraits
When you want to photograph a human subject lit in candlelight, use
<x> (Candlelight). The atmosphere of candlelight is reflected in the
color tones of the picture.
Shooting Tips
Use the center AF point to focus.
Aim the center AF point in the viewfinder over the subject, then
shoot.
Prevent camera shake if the numeric display (shutter speed) in
the viewfinder blinks.
Under low light, the viewfinder's shutter speed display will blink.
Hold the camera steady or use a tripod. When using a zoom lens,
you can reduce the blur caused by camera shake by setting the lens
to the wide-angle end.
Change the color tone.
You can change [Color tone]. To increase the candlelight's reddish
tinge, set it toward [Warm]. Set it toward [Cool] if it looks too red.
Live View shooting is not possible.
Flash photography is not possible. In low light, the AF-assist beam may
be emitted (p.117).
