Notes 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.
