Technique for Night portrait mode
•
Open the flash
(
the flash setting will be [
], indicating a compulsory flash).
•
Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod and the self-timer for
taking pictures.
•
Ask the subject not to move while taking a picture.
•
We recommend rotating the zoom lever to Wide (1
k
) and being about 1.5 m from the subject
when taking a picture.
Note
•
The focus range is 0.8 m (Wide)/1.2 m (Tele) to 5 m.
•
The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal
processing. This is not a malfunction.
•
Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark places.
