Sports Mode

The built-in flash does not fire in Sports mode, even if it is raised.

If the shutter speed indicator blinks, the shutter speed may be too slow to keep the
picture from being blurred by camera shake. Be careful to hold the camera steady
and press the shutter button smoothly, or use a tripod. (The shutter speed indicator
still blinks if you use a tripod, but camera shake will not be a problem.)

For best results in Sports mode, use a film speed setting of ISO 400 or faster.
