The continuous-advance drive mode allows a series of images to be captured while holding down the
shutter-release button. Continuous advance acts like a motor drive on a film camera. The number of
images that can be captured at one time and the rate of capture depend on the image-quality and
image-size setting. The maximum rate of capture is 1.3 fps. The continuous-advance mode is set with
the drive-mode button (p. 32).

When the shutter-release button is pressed and held, the camera will begin recording images until
the maximum number has been taken or the shutter button is released. This mode cannot be used
with super-fine images (p. 41). The built-in flash can be used, but the rate of
capture is reduced because the flash must recharge between frames.

Compose the picture as described in the basic recording operation section (p. 23).
Press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the exposure and focus for
the series. Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way down (1) to begin
taking pictures.

The following chart lists the maximum number of images that
can be captured with different image-quality and image-size
combinations.
