The shutter opens for 15, 30 or 60 seconds. Be sure to use a tripod. We also recommend
taking pictures with the self-timer.
• We recommend using prefocus (P88) to focus in advance on a subject, such as a bright star or
a distant light, that is easy to focus on.
Note
•
The optical image stabilizer function is fixed to [OFF].
• ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO100].
