The release mode is normally set to Single-frame. Set the release mode to Continuous Shooting to
take sequential shots of moving subjects or to take a series of shots using Auto Exposure
Bracketing.

In this mode, one shot is taken each time you press the shutter button. Use this mode to take a
single clearly defined shot in each frame.

!

If you take a number of single-frame shots in rapid succession, the number of available shots is highlighted in the same
way as in continuous shooting. Once this happens, no further shots can be taken. Wait until the number of available shots
is no longer highlighted.

, SINGLE-FRAME

This mode allows you to take up to 12 consecutive shots by holding down the shutter button (Max.
2.5 frames/sec.).

h Once you have shot the maximum number of continuous frames, the number of available shots

shown on the rear display panel is highlighted. No further continuous shots can be taken at that
point. Wait until the number of available shots is no longer highlighted.

The number of available frame and the maximum number of continuous frames varies depending
on the dynamic range (D-RANGE) and quality settings in SET-UP.

. CONTINUOUS SHOOTING

Hold down the release mode switch unlock button
and set the release mode switch to “,” (Single-
frame) or “.” (Continuous Shooting).
