This mode allows you to take pictures 
against a night landscape. The subject can 
be recorded with brightness in real life by 
using the flash and slowing down the 
shutter speed.

∫ Technique for Night portrait mode
• Use the flash.
• Since the shutter speed becomes slow, 

we recommend using a tripod.

• Keep the subject still for about 1 second 

when taking a picture.

• We recommend taking pictures by rotating 

the zoom lever to Wide (1

k) and being at 

a distance about 1.5 m from the subject.

• The focus range is 1.2 m – 5 m.

(Refer to P40 for the flash control range.)

• The shutter may be kept closed (max. 

about 1 sec.) after taking a picture 
because of signal conditioning, but it is not 
a malfunction.

• When you take pictures in dark places, 

noise may become visible.

• When the flash setting is set to Forced 

OFF [

], press 

1 to set to Slow sync./

Red-eye reduction [

]. (The flash 

setting is fixed to Slow sync./Red-eye 
reduction [

] and the flash is always 

activated.)

• The ISO sensitivity is fixed to [AUTO].

This mode allows you to take beautiful 
pictures of fireworks exploding in the night 
sky. The shutter speed is automatically 
adjusted for taking pictures of fireworks.

∫ Technique for Fireworks mode
• We recommend using a tripod.

• The ISO sensitivity is fixed to [AUTO].
• This mode is most suitable when the 

camera is at a distance of 10 m or more 
from the subject.

• The flash setting is fixed to Forced OFF 

[

].
