Advanced (Recording pictures)
Set here when you want to take pictures of sports scenes or other fast-moving events.
Note
This mode is suitable for taking pictures of subjects at distances of 5 m (16.4 feet) or more.
[INTELLIGENT ISO] is activated, and maximum ISO sensitivity level becomes [ISO800].
This allows you to take pictures of a person and the background with near real-life 
brightness.
∫ Technique for Night portrait mode
Open the flash (the flash setting will be [
], indicating a compulsory flash).
Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod and the self-timer for 
taking pictures.
Ask the subject not to move while taking a picture.
We recommend rotating the zoom lever to Wide (1k) and being about 1.5 m (4.92 feet) from 
the subject when taking a picture.
Note
The focus range is 0.8 m (2.62 feet) (Wide)/1.2 m (3.94 feet) (Tele) to 5 m (16.4 feet).
The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal 
processing. This is not a malfunction.
Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark places.
The initial setting for [AF MODE] is [š].
This allows you to take vivid pictures of the nightscape.
∫ Technique for Night scenery mode
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 taking picture. 
Note
The focus range is 5 m (16.4 feet) to ¶.
The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal 
processing. This is not a malfunction.
Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark places.
This mode allows you to take pictures of food with a natural hue without being affected by 
the ambient light in restaurants etc.
Note
The focus range becomes the same as AF macro mode. [1 cm (0.04 feet) (Wide)/30 cm 
(0.99 feet) (Tele) to ¶]
