Normally, a tripod is necessary to steady your camera when shooting a
night scene. However, with the <F> (Handheld Night Scene) mode,
you can shoot night scenes while handholding the camera. In this
mode, four shots are taken continuously for each picture. A bright
image with reduced camera shake is taken.
Hold the camera firmly.
While shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily. If any of the four
shots are greatly misaligned due to camera shake, etc., they may
not align properly in the final image.
If you are shooting only the night scene, set Flash off.
The default setting is set to <b> Flash off. If you are shooting only
the night scene, set Flash off.
For shots of people, turn on the flash.
If you shoot people in the night scene, press the <Q> button to
select <b> Flash off, then set <D> (Flash on).
To take a nice portrait, the first shot will use flash. Tell the person not
to move until all four continuous shots are taken.
