Using BEST SHOT
With High Speed Night Scene and High Speed Night Scene and Portrait, the camera
detects automatically whether it is being hand-held or on a tripod. If the camera
detects it is being hand-held, pressing the shutter button will record a series of
images and combine them in a way that minimizes image blur due to low light
conditions. If the camera detects it is on a tripod, it will shoot a single image using a
longer exposure time (instead of shooting and combining multiple images), which
results in an even clearer image. The flash is always disabled while “High Speed
Night Scene” is selected. If the night scene image you are shooting includes people,
use the “High Speed Night Scene and Portrait” BEST SHOT scene. The flash mode
setting becomes > (Auto Flash) when shooting with “High Speed Night Scene and
Portrait”.
1. In the REC mode, press [BS] (BEST SHOT).
2. Select “High Speed Night Scene” or “High Speed Night Scene and
Portrait” and then press [SET].
3. When you are ready to shoot, press the shutter button.
NOTE
• When holding the camera by hand while shooting with these BEST SHOT scenes,
make sure that the subjects remain as still as possible as the camera shoots the
series of images.
• Even when holding the camera by hand while shooting with “High Speed Night
Scene and Portrait”, under certain conditions the camera may shoot only a single
image instead of a series of images.
• When shooting with “High Speed Night Scene and Portrait”, camera movement will
cause anti shake to be performed, which can cause the image area to become
narrower than normal.
• Movement while the camera is mounted on a tripod may cause the camera to
erroneously judge it is being hand held.
• If surroundings are extremely dark when shooting with “High Speed Night Scene”
or “High Speed Night Scene and Portrait”, the camera may not be able to shoot at
proper brightness due to insufficient exposure.
• When shooting with these BEST SHOT scenes, the “ISO Sensitivity” setting is fixed
at “AUTO”.
