6 Shooting Portraits at Night To shoot someone at night and obtain a natural-looking exposure in the background, use the (Night Portrait) mode. Shooting Tips Use a wide-angle lens and a tripod. When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide night view. Also, use a tripod to prevent camera shake. Keep the person within 5 meters/16.4 feet from the camera. Under low light, the built-in flash will fire automatically to obtain a good exposure of the person. The maximum effective distance of the built-in flash is 5 meters/16.4 feet from the camera. Shoot also with (Full Auto). Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots, shooting also with (Full Auto) is recommended. Tell the subject to keep still even after the flash fires. If you use the self-timer together with flash, the self-timer lamp will light briefly after the picture is taken. 53
