Night Scene Mode
● If you are taking images of scenery only (and not people), use Landscape
〈 〉
mode.
● Tell your subjects not to move for a few seconds after the flash fires.
● You can also use Night Scene
〈 〉
mode with an EX-series Speedlite.
● In daylight, Night Scene
〈 〉
mode operates the same as
〈 〉
(Full Auto)
mode.
For best results in Night Scene mode, use a film speed setting of ISO 400 or faster.
(→55, 120)
This mode is for taking pictures of people at sunset or
at night. It uses flash to illuminate the subject and a
slow shutter speed to expose the background,
resulting in a natural-looking exposure.
Set the Mode Dial to
〈 〉
.
● The way you take pictures is the same as in
〈 〉
(Full Auto) mode. (→42)
The AF mode is automatically set to
〈
ONE
SHOT
〉
, the drive mode to
〈 〉
(Single shot),
and the metering mode to
〈 〉
.
The Quality setting is automatically set to
Large/Fine (2160
×
1440).
● To prevent camera shake, always use a tripod.
● When the shutter speed has been automatically set to 1-2 seconds, it will take
one second from when the shutter button is pressed down fully until the picture
is taken. Continue pressing the shutter button until the picture is taken.
