)

Please use this setting when you wish

to freeze fast-moving subjects, such as

sports activities and events.

• If you keep the shutter button pressed

down, continuous photographs can be

taken.

Set the command dial to is,.

•We recommend that you use film with a speed of ISO 400 or over.
•We also recommend telephoto lenses for sports photography, such as the EF80-

200mm f/4.5 - 5.6 USM, EF75 - 300mm f/4 - 5.6 USM, etc.

• If the built-in flash pops up when you set the command dial to Ss,, press the flash gen

tly down until it retracts before shooting. You will not be able to take the picture as you

see It If the flash Is left on.

• If the shutter speed indicator blinks, there is a danger of camera shake, so be sure to

hold the camera steady and take care how you press the shutter button. Otherwise we

recommend using a tripod. (Even when using a tripod, however, it Is still possible for

the shutter speed to blink if there is a danger of camera shake.)
