Shooting With Slow Synchro - Canon PowerShot SX150 IS User Manual

Shooting with Slow Synchro

You can make the main subject, such as people, appear bright by having the
camera provide the appropriate illumination with the flash. At the same time,
you can use a slow shutter speed to brighten the background that the light
from the flash cannot reach.
Attach the camera to a tripod to prevent the camera from moving and
blurring the image. Additionally, you should set [IS Mode] to [Off] when
shooting with a tripod (p. 159).
What if the setting screen does not appear even when you
press the r button?
The flash is lowered. Raise the flash manually.
Raise the flash.
Choose Z.
After pressing the r button, press the qr
buttons or turn the 5 dial to choose Z,
then press the m button.
Once set, Z will appear on the screen.
Shoot.
Even if the flash fires, ensure that the main
subject does not move until the shutter
sound ends.
