•  [i.AUTO] is activated, and maximum ISO sensitivity level becomes [ISO1600].

y [NIGHT PORTRAIT]

Shoot the subject with natural brightness using the fl ash and slow shutter speed.

Use the fl ash. (You can set to [[].)

•  Due to the slow shutter speed, use a tripod and the self-timer for best results.

•  The focus range is 1.2 m (3.94 feet) to 5 m (16.41 feet).

•  The shutter may close (max. about 8 sec.) after shooting due to signal processing. This is not 

a malfunction.

u [NIGHT SCENERY]

The nightscape can be recorded vividly.

•  When the camera is set to [STABILIZER] and there is very little jitter, or if [STABILIZER] is set 

to [OFF], shutter speed may slow down up to 8 seconds. We recommend using the tripod and 

the self-timer for best results.
