Cautions for <6> Night Portrait and <F> Handheld Night Scene
It may be difficult to focus dots of light such as in a night scene. In such a
case, set the lens’s focus mode to [MF] and focus manually.
Cautions for <F> Handheld Night Scene and <G> HDR Backlight
Control
Compared with other shooting modes, the shooting area will be smaller.
1+73 or 1 cannot be selected. If 1+73 or 1 has been set, 73
will be set.
If you shoot a moving subject, the subject’s movement may leave afterimages
or the surrounding area of the subject may become dark.
The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns
(lattice, stripes, etc.), flat or single-tone images, or images significantly
misaligned due to camera shake.
Recording the image to the card will take longer than with normal shooting.
During the processing of the images, “BUSY” will be displayed and you
cannot take another picture until the processing is completed.
You cannot use Creative filters when shooting.
Final image simulation is not available.
If the shooting mode is set to <F> or <G>, direct printing is not possible.
Cautions for <F> Handheld Night Scene
When shooting flash photography, if the subject is too close to the camera,
the picture may come out extremely bright (overexposure).
If you use flash to shoot a night scene with few lights, the shots may not align
correctly. This can result in a blurry photo.
If you use flash and the human subject is close to the background that is also
illuminated by the flash, the shots may not align correctly. This can result in a
blurry photo. Unnatural shadows and unsuitable colors may also appear.
Regarding flash coverage:
When using a Speedlite with automatic flash coverage setting, the zoom
position will be fixed to the wide end, regardless of the lens’ zoom position.
If you have to set the flash coverage manually, set it to the wide-angle end.
Cautions for <G> HDR Backlight Control
Note that the image may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may
look irregular or have significant noise.
HDR Backlight Control may not be effective for excessively backlit scenes or
extremely high-contrast scenes.
When shooting subjects that are sufficiently bright, for example for normally lit
scenes, the image may look unnatural because of the applied HDR effect.
