CNotes on Sport Continuous Mode

•The speed of continuous shooting may be slower depending on shutter speed settings and the data transfer speed of the memory card.

•As the ISO sensitivity is automatically set to a high setting, the captured pictures may appear rough as a result.

•As the ISO sensitivity is fixed at 720 and over, proper exposure may not be obtained in clear weather (pictures may be overexposed).

•If bright objects such as the sun or electric lights are captured during high-speed continuous shooting, vertical streaks of light may appear in the recorded images. We recommend that you avoid capturing bright objects during Sport continuous shooting.

•When shooting under fluorescent or mercury lights that have a high flicker rate, exposure and white balance may differ from picture to picture.

•The flash setting is fixed at W (off).

•The exposure compensation (A 35) is available.

•The self-timer and macro mode are not available.

•During sport continuous mode, the camera continuously adjusts the focus with the autofocus function until you press the shutter-release button halfway, after which focus is locked.
