IMPORTANT!
• The shutter speed is quite slow in the Night Scene
Mode, so be sure to use a tripod to hold the camera
steady.
• Slow shutter speed also causes slow monitor screen
refresh. Because of this, the image recorded may be
slightly different from the image that was on the moni-
tor screen when you pressed the shutter button.
• Auto Focus is difficult in the dark. If you experience
problems, use manual focusing (page E-64). There
may be some blurring of the image if the subject is fast
moving.
• The contrast of Night Scene Mode images is not af-
fected by changes made using the REC Menu's Con-
trast settings (page E-80).
