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 flash setting is fixed to [
Œ
].
•
The Optical image stabilizer function is fixed to [OFF].
•
ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO80].
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
•
The flash setting is fixed to [
Œ
].
•
This mode is most effective when the subject is 10 m (32.8 feet) or more away.
•
The shutter speed becomes the following.
–
Image stabiliser function [OFF]: 2 seconds
–
When [AUTO], [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 for the exposure.
•
The AF area is not displayed.
•
ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO80].
This allows you to take even more vivid pictures of the blue color of the sea, sky etc. It also
prevents underexposure 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
