Here is a link to your manual.You do not have to sign up for anything and there is no junk after.Click download,then enter the 5 digit code and press download again.It will open a menu.If you want to save it permananetly click save.It will most likely save to your documents folder.For 1 time use click run.You may want to save this site for future reference also.It is excellent and has a wide variety of electronics.If you are using manual mode,you need a high shutter speed.perhaps 250 or 500.It captures fast moving objects better.If you have any questions or need more help,just comment here and I will get an autolink to your post and reply ASAP.I really encourage responses so I can follow up properly as I know where you stand and asking someone else restarts all the explaining because we cannot see other 'Expert's' responses.Good luck,Greg
You want to use S mode which gives priority to the shutter speed.It appears that you can change the ISO setting if the camera will not operate with a high shutter speed because there is not enough light with the aperture set at it's lowest possible setting.With a film camera,the ISO is automatically set when you put the film in.It is built in to automatically detect the ISO of the film you are using.Also,for high speed shots,you want a higher rated ISO film.The majority of film sold is 100 and 400 but you may need to go to one higher than 400.With higher ISO ratings though,the pictures become a little grainier.The quality may not be as well as 100 but it will result in non blurry photos.First though,I would try a film rated at 400.Take some pictures of a car in a 45 MPH zone or something fast moving to kind of get a little better understanding of what happens AND TAKE NOTES.Practicing just a little bit will help you very much in seeing what happens when you do whatever.Good luck again,Greg
Please do not approve/disapprove this unless you are completely sure that the information I supplied is all that you need because it will cut off our communication link if you do.Also,S mode info is on page 43 of your manual.If you already don't know,holding the picture take button down half way gets the camera focused.Also practice that if you aren't confident about your focusing.You will also get a better feel for the difference in button position from when you focus to the position when the shutter clicks to take the picture.
