Anyone know how to take nightshots of using Canon Ixus 330?

Anyone know how to take nightshots expecially very very dark places using Canon ixus 330?

Perhaps you can try using the Ixus 330's long shutter function and crank up the ISO sensitivity, and see what happens.

Use a tripod, set ur cam to manual mode and set a long shutter speed + smaller aperture. Set the self-timer, snap.

Btw, use the lowest ISO possible to avoid noisy images.

Canon iuxs 330 can set aperture?

IXUS 330 don't have manual mode

Clarenz, I'm not that sure but you can try this.

- Set your camera to auto-record mode (the one with the camera symbol w/o the "M")
- Switch off the flash
- Set your camera on the tripod
- Use the 2 second self-timer to trigger the shutter.

Show us some pictures after you tried.

In a recent (ok, a few months back) talk by John Cosgrove at Objectifs, he gave one tip of shooting night scenes on dumb cameras - set the Landscape mode. This sets the smallest aperture and thus gives a longish exposure time. Not sure if the Ixus has scene modes but worth a try.

Then follow the other tips up there about using tripod and self-timer.
