Shooting Moving Subjects - Canon EOS REBEL T3 Basic Instruction Manual

5 Shooting Moving Subjects

To photograph a moving subject, whether it is a child running or a
moving vehicle, use the <5> (Sports) mode.
Shooting Tips
Use a telephoto lens.
Using a telephoto lens is recommended so you can shoot from afar.
Use the center AF point to focus.
Aim the center AF point over the subject, then press the shutter
button halfway to autofocus. During autofocusing, the beeper will
continue beeping softly. If focus cannot be achieved, the focus
confirmation light <o> will blink.
When you want to take the picture, press the shutter button
completely. If you hold down the shutter button, continuous shooting
(max. approx. 3 shots per sec. in JPEG quality) and autofocusing
will take effect.
Under low light when camera shake is prone to occur, the viewfinder's
shutter speed display on the bottom left will blink. Hold the camera steady
and shoot.
