• When setting to 3-area-focusing, pictures
may become still while being focused on,
however, this is not a malfunction.
• When using the digital zoom or when you
take pictures in dark places, the AF area
is displayed on the centre of the screen
with a size wider than usual.
• When multiple AF areas (max. 5 areas)
light at the same time, the camera is
focusing on all the AF areas.
The focus position is not predetermined
because it is set to the position that the
camera automatically determines at the
time of focusing. If you want to determine
the focus position to take pictures, switch
the AF mode to 1-area-focusing mode.
The shutter speed can be automatically
adjusted. However, if you want brighter
pictures, you can manually select a slower
shutter speed. This is especially effective if
you want to take pictures where both the
night landscape and the subject are bright,
using [NIGHT PORTRAIT] in scene mode
(P56).
The slow shutter speed values you can
select are: [1/8 –], [1/4 –], [1/2 – ] and [1 –].
∫ Example
• Usually, set to [1/8 –] to take pictures.
(When you select slow shutter speed
values other than [1/8 –], [ ] appears
on the lower left of the LCD monitor.)
• When you set shutter speed slower on
[SLOW SHUTTER], we recommend using
a tripod because jitters become easier to
occur.
• You cannot set the slow shutter in
[NIGHT SCENERY] and [FIREWORKS] in
scene mode. (P56)
