This allows you to take pictures of a person and the background with near real-life
brightness.
Technique for Night Portrait Mode
When selecting [NIGHT PORTRAIT], ask the subject not to move while taking a picture.
Note
Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod and the Self-Timer for
taking pictures.
When the camera is set to [STABILIZER] and there is very little jitter, or if [STABILIZER] is set
to [OFF], shutter speed may slow down up to 8 seconds.
The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal
processing. This is not a malfunction.
During motion picture recording, low light settings [ ] are used, which will provide
better pictures in dimly lit rooms or at nightfall.
The range in which the focus is adjusted is shown below.
[NIGHT PORTRAIT]: 60 cm (1.97 feet) to 10 m (32.8 feet) (Wide)
[NIGHT SCENERY]/[ILLUMINATIONS]/[CREATIVE NIGHT SCENERY]: 5 m (16.4 feet) to
Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark places.
