Night Portrait Mode
Use [ ] (Night Portrait) mode for bright, beautiful shots of people with night scenes in the
background. Note that shooting in this mode requires the built-in flash or a Speedlite.
Using a tripod is recommended.
Shooting tips
Use a wide-angle lens and a tripod.
When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide night view. Because
camera shake occurs in handheld shooting, using a tripod is also recommended.
Check the image brightness.
It is recommended to play back the captured image on location to check the image
brightness. If the subject looks dark, move nearer and shoot again.
Also shoot in other shooting modes.
Consider also shooting in < > and [ ] mode, because shots are more likely to be
blurry.
Caution
Tell subjects to remain still for a moment after the flash fires.
Focusing may be difficult if subject faces look dark when you shoot. In this case,
set the focus mode to MF ( ) and focus manually.
Autofocusing at night or in dark scenes may be difficult when points of light lie
within the AF point. In this case, set the focus mode to MF ( ) and focus
manually.
Shots will look slightly different from the preview image shown on the screen.
Note
The self-timer lamp fires briefly after shots in this mode if the self-timer is used.
