j Night landscape • After you select j Night landscape, select Y Hand-held or Z Tripod on the next screen. • Y Hand-held (default setting): Select this option to produce shots with reduced blurring and noise even when the camera is hand-held. - When the j icon in the upper left of the monitor lights in green, press the shutter-release button all the way to capture a series of images that will be combined and saved as a single image. - Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera still until the captured image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the monitor switches to the shooting screen. - The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image is narrower than that seen in the monitor at the time of shooting. • Z Tripod: Select this option when using a tripod or other means to stabilize the camera when shooting. - Vibration reduction is not used even if Vibration reduction (A 98) in the setup menu is set to On. - One image is captured at a slow shutter speed when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way. • The focus area or focus indicator (A 9) always glows green when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. • Digital zoom cannot be used. k Close-up • Macro mode (A 58) is enabled and the camera automatically zooms to the closest position at which it can shoot. • The camera focuses on the area in the center of the frame.

You may hear the sound of the camera focusing. Shooting Features O: Shutter speed is reduced when using scene modes indicated with O; therefore, the use of a tripod is recommended. Set Vibration reduction to Off in the setup menu (A 98) when 40 shooting using a tripod to stabilize the camera.
