∫ Technique for Fireworks mode
•
Since the shutter speed becomes slower, we recommend using a tripod.
Note
•
This mode is most effective when the subject is 10 m or more away.
• The shutter speed becomes the following.
– When [OFF] is set on the optical image stabilizer function: Fixed to 2 seconds
– When [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 the exposure.
• The AF area is not displayed.
• ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO100].
This allows you to take even more vivid pictures of the blue colour of the sea, sky etc. It also
prevents under exposure 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 not
get into the lens or the terminals.
