∫ 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.

Note

•

The optical image stabilizer function is fixed to [OFF].

•

ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO100].

This mode allows you to take beautiful pictures of fireworks exploding in the night sky.

∫ Technique for Fireworks mode
•

Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod.

Note

•

This mode is most effective when the subject is 10 m (32.8 feet) or more away.

•

The shutter speed becomes the following.

–

When [OFF] is set on the optical image stabilizer function: Fixed to 2 seconds

–

When [MODE1] or [MODE2] is set on the optical image stabilizer function: 1/4th of a second
or 2 seconds (The shutter speed becomes 2 seconds only when the camera has determined
that there is little jitter such as when using a tripod etc.)

–

You can change the shutter speed by compensating the exposure.

•

The AF area is not displayed.

•

ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO100].

This allows you to take even more vivid pictures of the blue color of the sea, sky etc. It also
prevents under exposure of people under strong sunlight.

Note

•

The initial setting for [AF MODE] is [š].

•

Do not touch the camera with wet hands.

•

Sand or seawater will cause the camera to malfunction. Make sure that sand or seawater does
not get into the lens or the terminals.

•

Problems caused by sand or seawater are not covered by the product warranty.
