• The camera automatically captures moving subjects at regular intervals, compares each
image and composites only their bright areas, and then saves them as one image. Light
trails such as the flow of car lights or motion of stars are captured.
• On the screen displayed when U Multiple exp. Lighten is selected, select
V Nightscape + light trails, W Nightscape + star trails, or S Star trails.
• The screen may turn off during the shooting interval. The power-on lamp turns on while
the screen is off.
• To end shooting before it automatically ends, press the k button while the screen is on.
• When you have obtained the desired trails, end shooting. If you continue shooting,
details in the composited areas may be lost.

shooting ends are grouped as a sequence, and the first image saved is used as the key
picture (A67).
