Shooting in Sport Continuous Mode
Sports continuous mode allows rapid, continuous shooting while you press and
hold the shutter-release button fully. With continuous shooting, instantaneous
movements in moving subjects can be captured clearly.
1
Rotate the mode dial to d (sport
continuous).
2
Press d and choose a continuous shooting
type.
• Use the multi selector in the sport continuous menu to
choose a type ( A 47).
• Press d or the shutter-release button to return to the
shooting screen.
3
Frame the subject and shoot.
• Camera focuses on subject in center of
frame.
• Continuous shooting takes place for as
long as the shutter-release button is
pressed fully.
• If a high-speed continuous shooting
setting (H, M, L) is selected, shooting ends
when the maximum number of frames per shot is reached. To continue taking
pictures, press the shutter-release button fully again.

Notes on Sport Continuous Mode
• The flash setting is fixed at W (off).
• The focus mode (
A 34) is set to A (autofocus). During sport continuous mode, the camera
continuously adjusts the focus with the autofocus function until you press the shutter-release button
halfway and focus becomes fixed. E (manual focus) is also available for the focus mode setting.
• Exposure compensation ( A 37) is available.
• The focus, exposure, and white balance settings are fixed at the values for the first picture in each series.
• The self-timer is unavailable.
• The speed of continuous shooting may be slower depending on the image quality, image size,
and shutter speed settings and the data transfer speed of the memory card.
• When a high-speed continuous shooting setting is selected, ISO sensitivity is automatically set to a
high setting. Captured pictures may appear rough as a result.
• Be aware that shooting will stop if the built-in flash is raised or lowered while you are pressing the
shutter-release button fully.
