Western restaurants across the country basically have one characteristic: dim lighting. In this environment, you either need a longer exposure time, a larger aperture, or a higher sensitivity...

It is feasible to use the AV mode. Generally, the photos taken in this environment are If it is a portrait or still life, try to open the aperture to the maximum to obtain the largest possible light area. The sensitivity can also be appropriately set to about 800-1600 (of course, if it still doesn't work, you can set it higher), and then you have to pay attention to the AV The shutter speed given in the mode. If there is optical image stabilization and you are shooting still life, there is no problem if the shutter speed is 1/4~1/8 (of course, the faster the speed, the higher the success rate, for the focal length of the lens), but you should try your best Stable. If it is a person, the shutter speed should be above 1/30, and the person being photographed should not move around... If the shutter speed cannot meet the requirements, increase the aperture or increase the sensitivity.

Of course, you can also use TV mode, directly set to the shutter speed mentioned above, and let the machine determine the shutter speed and sensitivity. This is more convenient.
