The maximum number of continuous shots
The number of continuous shooting images obtainable has an upper limit.
Notes
• You cannot shoot images continuously when “0” flashes in the viewfinder. Wait
until the indicator disappears.
• When the exposure mode is set to a Scene Selection mode other than (Sports
Action), you cannot shoot continuously.
• The speed of continuous shooting may be slower when the battery level is
insufficient or at low ambient temperatures.
The 10-second self-timer is convenient when the photographer appears in a
photo and the 2-second self-timer is convenient to reduce the camera shake.
[Self-timer(Cont.)] is convenient to prevent failure because the camera
continuously shoots either three or five images after a 10 second pause.
To cancel the self-timer
