Canon EOS 1300D - Manual (Page 72)

72
To shoot people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the
background, use the <6> (Night Portrait) mode. Using a tripod is
recommended.
 Use a wide-angle lens and a tripod.
When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide
night view. Also, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
 Check the subject’s brightness.
Under low light, the built-in flash will fire automatically to obtain a
good exposure of the subject.
It is recommended to play back the image after shooting to check
the image brightness. If the subject looks dark, move nearer and
shoot again.
 Also shoot with the <A> (Scene Intelligent Auto) mode.
Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots, shooting also
in the <A> mode is recommended.
