Sports Mode
This mode is ideal for capturing high-speed photo
opportunities such as sports scenes and children at
play. A fast shutter speed is automatically selected
to "freeze" the action on film. However, the high
shutter speed is not the only important feature of
this mode. To shoot such high-speed action,
excellent timing is essential to take the photo at just
the right moment. This mode offers the optimal
combination of continuous shooting and autofocus
to maximize your timing for maximum results.
Night Scene Mode
When shooting night scenes you may sometimes
be disappointed with the result, usually because the
camera's automatic exposure function works on a
standard exposure ratio. In such situations a
professional photographer would adjust for
exposure compensation based on long experience,
or select the manual shooting mode.
The IS-2's night scene mode will automatically
adjust the exposure compensation for attractive
night scene photography. For example, when
shooting a subject with a night scene as its
background, the use of the flash is often desirable.
Should that be the case, the camera performs the
most suitable exposure compensation for both the
subject and the background. Since the selected
shutter speed may be very slow (up to 4 seconds
with ISO 100 or 15 seconds with ISO 25), the
camera should be held firmly in position (with a
tripod for example) to prevent blurring.
