Setting the shutter speed manually
You can set the shutter speed manually. A fast shutter speed can freeze the
motion of a fast moving subject and a slow shutter speed can blur the subject to
give the impression of motion.
• Fast shutter speed allows a fast-moving subject to be captured one frame at a
time vividly.
Use these settings when an automatic adjustment does not work well with
“Sports” mode in “Scene Mode (AE).” page 52
