Canon EOS M2 - Shooting Night Portraits (with a Tripod)

82
To shoot people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the
background, use the <6> (Night Portrait) mode. A flash is required for
shooting.
Using a tripod is also recommended.
 Use a wide-angle lens 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.
 Check the subject’s brightness.
When the Speedlite 90EX’s power is <1>, the flash will fire
automatically under low-light conditions to obtain a nice portrait. It is
recommended to play back the image after the shooting to check the
image brightness. If the subject looks dark, move nearer and shoot again.

briefly after the picture is taken.
