Night Portrait Mode
When you want to photograph people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the
background, use the [
] (Night Portrait) mode. Note that shooting in this mode requires
the built-in flash or a Speedlite. Using a tripod is recommended.
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. Because
camera shake occurs in handheld shooting, using a tripod is also recommended.
Check the image brightness.
It is recommended to play back the captured image on location to check the image
brightness. If the subject looks dark, move nearer and shoot again.
Also shoot in other shooting modes.
Consider also shooting in <
> and [ ] mode, because shots are more likely to be
blurry.
Caution
Tell subjects to remain still for a moment after the flash fires.
During Live View shooting, achieving focus may be difficult when the face of the
subject looks dark. In this case, set the lens's focus mode switch to <
> and
focus manually.
When you shoot a night scene with Live View shooting, achieving focus with AF
may be difficult if point sources of light are found in the AF point. In this case, set
the lens's focus mode switch to <
> and focus manually.
The Live View image displayed will not look exactly the same as the actual
captured image.
