Recording in dark places (NightShot 
plus)
When you set the NIGHTSHOT PLUS 
switch to ON,   appears. You can record 
images in dark places.
Notes
 The NightShot plus and Super NightShot plus 
functions use infrared light. Therefore, do not 
cover the infrared port with your fingers or 
other objects, and remove the conversion lens 
(optional).
 Adjust the focus manually ([FOCUS], p. 71) 
when it is hard to focus automatically.
 Do not use the NightShot plus and Super 
NightShot plus functions in bright places. This 
may cause a malfunction.
Tips
 To record an image brighter, use the Super 
NightShot plus function (p. 74). To record an 
image more faithfully to the original colors, use 
the Color Slow Shutter function (p. 74).
