Night Portrait Assist
(night portrait assist) mode is used for taking portrait
shots at night, when it provides a natural balance be-
tween the main subject and the background. Pictures
taken at slow shutter speeds are adjusted to reduce
noise, slightly increasing processing time; to prevent
blurring, mount the camera on a tripod or rest it on a
fl at, stable surface.
