To shoot people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the
background, use the <6> (Night Portrait) mode. Flash is required.
Using a tripod is also recommended.
Use a wide-angle lens, Speedlite, and a tripod.
When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide
night view. Also, use
a tripod to prevent camera shake.
Also shoot in another shooting modes.
Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots,
shooting also
with <A> and <F> is recommended.

Shooting Tips
Tell the subject to keep still even after the flash fires.
If you use the self-timer together with flash, the self-timer lamp will light
up briefly after the picture is taken.
During Live View shooting, it may be difficult to focus dots of light such as
in a night scene. In such a case, you should set the AF method to [Quick
mode] and shoot. If it is still difficult to focus, set the lens’ focus mode
switch to [MF] and focus manually.
