      Have you ever tried taking a picture with a nightscape in the background only to have the background come out dark and unrecognizable? If you use [Slow Synchro], you can shoot both the subject and nightscape clearly. This section describes how to set [Slow Synchro].
      CAUTION
      • Using Slow Synchro increases the chances for camera shake. Use of a tripod is recommended.
