ªTaking Pictures using Night 
Portrait Mode
Night portrait mode allows you to take 
pictures against a nighttime landscape. 
By using the flash and a slow shutter 
speed, the picture will show the subject 
and the background brighter than they 
appear in real life.
Preparation
 Set the mode dial to [ ]. (P8)
Shutter speed in Night portrait mode
Technique for Night portrait mode
 We recommend using a tripod since 
the shutter speed becomes slow in a 
dark setting (max. about 1 second).
 Keep the subject still for about 
1 second after taking a picture.
 The subject should be positioned 
within the available flash range 
[50 cm – 4.8 m (Wide), 50 cm – 2.8 m 
(Tele)].(When setting to [ISO400]/
[AUTO].)
 We recommend rotating the zoom 
lever to Wide.
 The focus range is about 1 m – 3 m.When taking picture of a landscape 
at night
 When flash is set to Forced OFF 
[ ], you can capture the night 
illumination scenery itself with slower 
shutter speed. (Max: about 8 seconds)
 The focus range is about 3 m –¶.
¬
Suggestions/Tips ¬
 Flash setting is fixed to Slow sync./
Red-eye reduction [ ].
 The shutter may be kept closed 
(max. about 8 seconds) after taking a 
picture with slow shutter speed, but it 
is not a malfunction.
 When the flash is set to Forced OFF in 
Night portrait mode and you record the 
subject except the night illumination 
scenery, the hue may change due to 
the [AUTO] setting in white balance.
 You can change the white balance 
setting. (P51)
 When you take pictures in dark places, 
noises may become visible.
To avoid noises, we recommend 
setting [PICT.ADJ.] to [NATURAL]. 
(P58)
 When you record pictures in dark 
places, it may be difficult to focus on 
the subject. We recommend recording 
pictures in bright places with contrast 
using the AF/AE lock (P28).
