Vivid shots of fireworks.

Subjects appear larger in [ ] mode compared to other modes.

In [ ] and [

S] modes, shots may look grainy because the ISO

speed (

=

70

) is increased to suit the shooting conditions.

Because the camera will shoot continuously in [ ] mode, hold it

steady while shooting.

In [ ] mode, excessive camera shake or certain shooting

conditions may prevent you from obtaining the desired results.

In [

t] mode, mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures

to keep it still and prevent camera shake. Additionally, you should

set [IS Mode] to [Off] when using a tripod or other means to secure

the camera (

=

89

).

When you use a tripod for evening scenes, shooting in [

] mode instead

of [

] mode will give better results (

=

29

).

In [

t] mode, although no frames are displayed when you press the shutter

button halfway, optimal focus is still determined.
