∫ Technique for Starry Sky Mode

The shutter opens for 15, 30 or 60 seconds. Be sure to use a tripod. We also recommend
taking pictures with the self-timer.
•We recommend using prefocus (P85) to focus in advance on a subject, such as a bright star or
a distant light, that is easy to focus on.
Note

During motion picture recording, low light settings are used, which will provide better
pictures in dimly lit rooms or at nightfall.
•The flash setting is fixed to [Œ].
•The Optical Image Stabilizer function is fixed to [OFF].
•ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO80].
