Owner's Manual

z For better shots, have the person stand away from illumination such as
street lights, and make sure the ash is raised.
z There will be a delay before you can shoot again, as the camera
processes the images.
z To avoid blurry shots, make sure the person you shoot stays still.
z B: blue; A: amber; M: magenta; G: green
z Skin tones remain the same when you adjust colors.
z Try setting
[Night display] to [On] in this mode.
z To adjust subject brightness, try changing the ash exposure
compensation.
z To adjust background brightness, try changing the exposure
compensation. Note that images may not look as expected under some
shooting conditions, and the person should stay still in steps 4 – 5,
because shooting takes longer (up to about 15 seconds).
z To capture more stars and brighter starlight, choose
[Star portrait
settings] → [Star visibility] → [Prominent]. Note that images may not look
as expected under some shooting conditions, and the person should
stay still in steps 4 – 5, because shooting takes longer (up to about 30
seconds).
z To make stars brighter, choose
[Star emphasis] → [Sharp]. To
emphasize the bright stars in a starry sky, set to [Soft]. This setting can
produce eye-catching shots by enlarging bright stars while de-emphasizing
dimmer stars. To disable starlight processing, select [Off]. Note that in
bright scenes, images are not processed to emphasize stars, even when
set to [Sharp] or [Soft].
