Cautions for the <SCN> Modes
6
: Night Portrait
o
Tell subjects to remain still for a moment after the flash fires.
o
Focusing may be difficult when subject faces look dark. In this case, set the
lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > and focus manually.
o
Autofocusing at night or in dark scenes may be difficult when points of light lie
within the AF point. In this case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > and
focus manually.
o
Shots will look slightly different from the image as displayed on the screen.
F
: Handheld Night Scene
o
Compared to other shooting modes, the image area will be smaller.
o
RAW image quality cannot be set.
o
Autofocusing at night or in dark scenes may be difficult when points of light lie
within the AF point. In this case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > and
focus manually (

o
Shots will look slightly different from the image as displayed on the screen.
o
If you use an external Speedlite and the subject is close, overexposure may
result.
o
If you use an external Speedlite for a night scene with limited lighting, the
shots may not align correctly. This may result in a blurry picture.
o
If you use an external Speedlite with a human subject close to the background
that is also illuminated by the flash, the shots may not align correctly. This may
result in a blurry picture. Unnatural shadows and unsuitable colors may also
appear.
o
Flash coverage angle with an external Speedlite:
• When using a Speedlite with automatic flash coverage setting, the zoom
position will be fixed to the wide (wide-angle) end regardless of the lens’s
zoom position.
• When using a Speedlite requiring manual flash coverage setting, set the
flash head to the normal position.
