• Technique for Night portrait mode
• Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod and the self-timer for
taking pictures.
• When [NIGHT PORTRAIT] is selected, keep the subject still for about 1 second after taking the
picture.
• When [NIGHT PORTRAIT] is selected, we recommend rotating the zoom ring to Wide
(1 X)
and being about 1.5 m (4.92 feet) from the subject when taking a picture.
Note
• Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark places.
• The shutter may remain closed after taking the picture. This is due to signal processing and is
not a malfunction.
