Use this mode to shoot night landscapes.

Option	Description
Hand-held (default setting)	Select when shooting with the camera in your hands instead of stabilizing it on a tool such as a tripod.
Tripod	Select when shooting with the camera stabilized on a tool such as a tripod.

Select [Hand-held] or [Tripod].
Frame the subject and take a picture.
- The camera focuses on the area in the center of the frame. The position of the area cannot be moved.
- The camera focuses at infinity.
- For [Hand-held]:
  - While the icon on the shooting screen is displayed in green, press the shutter-release button all the way to capture a series of images which are combined into a single image and saved.
  - Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera still until a still image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the screen switches to the shooting screen.
- For [Tripod]:
  - One image is captured at a slow shutter speed when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way.

Notes about [Hand-held]

The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image is narrower than that seen on the shooting screen.
Continuous shooting may not be possible in certain shooting conditions.

Notes about [Tripod]

Vibration reduction is disabled regardless of the setup menu [Vibration reduction] setting. See “Using a Tripod” (Using a tripod) when using a tripod.
