Shooting with Vari-Program—continued
Use this mode to freeze action. It uses a fast
shutter speed suitable for stop-action
photography. In Sports Continuous mode,
Continuous Servo AF (page 44) is automatically
activated and the camera continues to focus on
the subject without Focus lock (page 50). Also,
the shutter is released repeatedly as long as the
shutter release button is fully depressed.
•80mm to 300mm telephoto lenses are
recommended.
•Use of ISO 400 or faster film speed is
recommended.
•A tripod is recommended when using a
telephoto lens to avoid camera shake.
•Continuous shooting is not possible when the
built-in Speedlight is in up position.
h: Night Scene mode
Use this mode for subjects with an evening or
night background. Night Scene mode captures all
the lighting in the scene, including the foreground
subject and background. When the flash is
cancelled, it allows you to capture the beauty of
nighttime or twilight scenes.
•Use of ISO 400 or faster film speed is
recommended.
•To avoid camera shake, use a tripod.
•To cancel flash, set the flash sync mode to Flash
Cancel fl (page 79) or close the built-in
