Note
The flash setting is fixed to [Œ].
The focus, zoom, exposure, white balance, shutter speed and ISO sensitivity are fixed to the
settings for the first picture.
The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal
processing. This is not a malfunction.
We recommend using a tripod.
The recorded images can be combined into panorama pictures using the software “ArcSoft
Panorama Maker” on the CD-ROM (supplied).
Set here when you want to take pictures of sports scenes or other fast-moving events.

This mode is suitable for taking pictures of subjects at distances of 5 m (16.4 feet) or more.
