Illuminating the subject makes it easier for
the camera to focus when recording in low
light conditions that make focusing difficult.
• If the AF assist lamp is
set to [ON], an AF area
with a size wider than
usual is displayed and the
AF assist lamp A turns
on when you press the shutter button
halfway in dark places etc.
• Be careful about the following when using
the AF assist lamp.
– Do not look at the AF assist lamp at
close range.
– Do not cover the AF assist lamp with
your fingers or other objects.
• When you do not want to use the AF
assist lamp (e.g. when taking pictures of
animals in dark places), set the
[AF ASSIST LAMP] to [OFF]. In this case,
it will become more difficult to focus on the
subject.
• The setting for [AF ASSIST LAMP] is fixed
to [ON] in simple mode [ ].
• The setting for the [AF ASSIST LAMP] is
fixed to [OFF] in [SELF PORTRAIT],
[SCENERY], [NIGHT SCENERY],
[SUNSET], [FIREWORKS] and
[AERIAL PHOTO] in scene mode.
• The initial setting for [PET] in scene mode
is [OFF]. (P46)
Press [ ] to display the [REC] mode

When taking pictures in dark places with
low light, you can take pictures which are
brighter than normal by selecting a setting
even slower than the slowest setting of the
shutter speed.
• The slow shutter speeds you can select
are: [1/8 –], [1/4 –], [1/2 –] and [1–].
• This is effective if you want to take bright
pictures of both a night landscape and a
subject using [NIGHT PORTRAIT] in
scene mode.
• This should usually be set to [1/8–] to take
pictures. (When you select a slow shutter
speed other than [1/8 –], [ ] appears on
the lower left of the screen.)
• When the shutter speed is made slower
using [SLOW SHUTTER], jitter is likely to
occur. We recommend using a tripod and
the self-timer for taking pictures.
• You cannot set the slow shutter in
Intelligent ISO sensitivity mode [ ] and
simple mode [ ] and [SPORTS],
[NIGHT SCENERY], [BABY1]/[BABY2],
[PET], [HI-SPEED BURST],
[STARRY SKY] and [FIREWORKS] in
scene mode.
