Shooting images
When you want finer images, set the mode dial to P, A, S, or M and use
the creative style function (page 112). In such cases, you can adjust the
exposure, ISO, etc., even when you select a suitable setting for the
subject.
Notes
Since the camera judges the settings automatically, many features will be
unavailable, such as exposure compensation, ISO setting.
The flash is set to [Autoflash] or [Flash Off] for each Scene Selection mode. You can
change these settings (page 98).
(Night View) Shoots night scenes at a distance
without losing the dark atmosphere of
the surroundings.
The shutter speed is slower, so using
a tripod is recommended.
The picture may not be taken
properly when shooting a wholly dark night scene.
(Hand-held
Twilight)
Shoots night scenes with less noise and
blur without using a tripod. A burst of
shots are taken, and image processing
is applied to reduce subject blur,
camera shake, and noise.
Reducing blur is less effective even
in [Hand-held Twilight] when shooting:
Subjects with erratic movement
Subjects are too close to the camera
Subjects with a repeating pattern such as tiles, and
subjects with little contrast such as sky, sandy beach, or
lawn
Subjects with constant change such as waves or water
falls
In the case of [Hand-held Twilight], block noise may occur
when using a light source that flickers, such as fluorescent
lighting.
(Night Portrait) Shoots portraits in night scenes.
The shutter speed is slower, so using
a tripod is recommended.
