Recording pictures (advanced)
•In panning mode, the shutter speed becomes slower than usual to achieve the panning effect. As a result, jitter can easily occur.
•Panning function does not work well in the following situations.
–Very bright scenes such as daytime in summer. We recommend using an ND filter
–When the shutter speed is faster than 1/100th.
–When the subject moves slowly and the tracking speed is too slow. (The background cannot be recorded dynamically.)
•The stabilizer function is fixed to [MODE1]. In panning mode, only vertical jitters can be compensated.
•The ISO sensitivity is fixed to [ISO80]
•The settings on the AF assist lamp and the continuous AF are disabled.
Fireworks mode
This mode allows you to take beautiful pictures of fireworks exploding in the night sky. The shutter speed or the exposure is automatically adjusted for taking pictures of fireworks.

AFFOCUS
∫Technique for Fireworks mode We recommend following the prefocus procedure below to ensure that you do not miss the chance to take pictures.
1 Set the [AF TRIGGER] to [FOCUS].
(P77)
2 Aim the camera at an object (such as
illumination on a building), which is roughly the same distance as the point of fireworks.
3 Press the [FOCUS] button until the focus indication (P77) lights.
4 Aim the camera at the direction where the fireworks will be exploding.
5 Press the shutter button fully when fireworks are exploding.
• When you zoom away from or towards the subject, repeat steps 2 – 5 since the focus position becomes misaligned.
• We recommend using a tripod.
