Use Close-up mode when
photographing objects from short
distances. Close-up photography
requires accurate focusing; use
focus hold or manual focus to
ensure sharp focus. The camera will
select the best possible aperture
and shutter speed for your subject.
Press and hold the subject-
program button.
Turn either control dial until
appears alone in the data
panel.
Release the subject-program
button.
SPORTS MODE
Tips:
• Use fast film and keep the focus frame on your subject.
• Mount the camera on a tripod when using a telephoto lens.
• Flash is only helpful if the subject is within the flash range.
Select Sports mode when faster
shutter speeds are needed to stop
action. In Sports mode, the camera
sets the fastest possible shutter
speed and continually adjusts the
focus to track fast-moving subjects.
Press and hold the subject-
program button.
Turn either control dial until
appears alone in the data
panel.
Release the subject-program
button.
