This mode allows you to take pictures with
a candle-lit atmosphere.
Technique for Candle light mode
If you make the most of the candle light,
you can take successful pictures without
using the flash.
Since the shutter speed becomes slower,
we recommend using a tripod and the
self-timer (P39) for taking pictures.
The focus range becomes the same as
macro mode. [5 cm (0.16 feet) (Wide)/
30 cm (0.98 feet) (Tele) to z]
The flash setting can be set to Slow sync,/
Red-eye reduction [_] or Forced ON/
Red-eye reduction [1_].
The white balance cannot be set,
Press [ _ ] to display the [SCENE MODE]
menu and select a scene mode. (P44)
This takes pictures of a baby with a healthy
complexion. When you use the flash, the
light from it is weaker than usual.
You can set two different birthdays by using
[BABY1] and [BABY2]. You can display the
set age when playing back the pictures and
stamp the age on the recorded pictures
with [DATE STAMP] (P72).
The age can also be printed on each
picture by using the software [LUMIX
Simple Viewer] or
[PHOTOfunSTUDIO-viewer-] in the
CD-ROM (supplied). (For information
about printing, refer to the separate
operating instructions for PC connection.)

To have the age displayed, first set the
birthday and then be sure to set
[WITH AGE] before taking the pictures.

when intelligent ISO sensitivity mode
[[_] is set to a highest ISO sensitivity of
[ISO400]. (P42)
If you turn on the camera in [BABY1]/
[BABY2], the age and current date and
time are displayed for about 5 seconds on
the bottom of the screen.
The age display style differs depending on
the language setting in the recording
mode.
If the age is not properly displayed, check
the clock and birthday settings.
If the camera is set to [WITHOUTAGE],
the age is not recorded even if the time
and birthday are set. This means the age
cannot be displayed even if camera is set
to [WITH AGE] after taking the pictures.
The birthday setting can be reset with
[RESET[. (P20)
Digital zoom cannot be used.
