•The setting for the [AFASSIST LAMP] is
fixed to [OFF] in [SELF PORTRAIT] (P44),

When taking pictures in dark places with
low light, you can take pictures which are
brighter than normal by selecting a setting
even slower than the slowest setting of the
shutter speed.
•The slow shutter speeds you can select
are: [1/8–], [1/4–], [1/2–] and [1–].
•This is effective if you want to take bright
pictures of both a night landscape and a
subject using [NIGHT PORTRAIT] (P45)
in scene mode.
•This should usually be set to [1/8–] to take
pictures. (When you select a slow shutter
speed other than [1/8–], [ ] appears on
the lower left of the screen.)
•When the shutter speed is made slower
using [SLOW SHUTTER], jitter is likely to
occur. We recommend using a tripod and
the self-timer (P38) for taking pictures.
•You cannot set the slow shutter in
Intelligent ISO sensitivity mode [ ] and
simple mode [ ] and [SPORTS],
[NIGHT SCENERY], [BABY1]/[BABY2],
[PET], [STARRY SKY] and [FIREWORKS]
in scene mode.
Press [ ] to display the [REC] mode
menu and select the item to set. (P57)
Select different items according to the
recording situation and your image of the
recording.
•When you take pictures in dark places,
noise may become visible. To avoid noise,
we recommend setting [COL.MODE] to
[NATURAL].
