Shooting Low-lit Scenes (Low Noise Night Mode)
The ISO sensitivity is controlled automatically to a high level. This allows you to
capture the atmosphere of a low-lit scene and shoot pictures with a low amount of
noise without using the flash. It also reduces the effects of camera shake and
subject movement when shooting at the telephoto zoom position.
• The available image size is
C 2048×1536 or smaller.
• The ISO sensitivity is set automatically within the range of ISO 400 to 12800.

• In the default setting, the camera automatically selects
one or more of the nine focus areas containing the
subject closest to the camera. When the subject is in
focus, the focus area (active focus area) lights in green
(maximum of nine areas) (

• To use the flash, raise the built-in flash.
