Night landscape
Produces night landscape shots with reduced blurring and
noise. When the
j
icon at the top left of the monitor lights in
green, press the shutter-release button all the way to capture
a series of images at high speed which will be combined into
a single image and saved.
•
Camera focuses at infinity. When the shutter-release button
is pressed halfway, the focus area or focus indicator (
A
6) always lights green. However,
because the camera focuses at infinity, it may not be able to focus on nearby objects.
•
Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera steady without
moving it until a still image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off
before the monitor switches to the shooting screen.
•
The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image will be
narrower than that seen in the monitor at the time of shooting.
•
Digital zoom is not available.
•
AF-assist illuminator (
A
