Setting the shutter speed manually

You can set the shutter speed manually. A fast shutter speed can freeze the motion of a fast moving subject and a slow shutter speed can blur the subject to give the impression of motion.

•Fast shutter speed allows a fast-moving subject to be captured one frame at a time vividly.

Use these settings when an automatic adjustment does not work well with “Sports” mode in “Scene Mode (AE).” page 52
