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 1.2 fps with the shutter FX on (p. 103), or 1.5 fps
with it off. Date imprinting lowers the frame rate. The continuous-advance mode is set with the drive-
mode button (p. 38).

When the shutter-release button is pressed and held, the camera will begin record-
ing images until the maximum number has been taken or the shutter button is
released. TIFF images (p. 46) cannot be captured. The built-in flash can be used, but
the rate of capture is reduced because the flash must recharge between frames.
Date-imprinting (p. 49) also reduces the rate of capture.

Compose the picture as described in the basic recording opera-
tion section (p. 26). Press the shutter-release button partway
down to lock onto the subject and set the exposure for the
series. Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way
down (1) to begin taking pictures; focus is locked with the first
frame.

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