❚❚ Choosing a Release Mode
Press
& button and use the multi selector
and J button to choose from the follow-
ing release modes: Single frame (the
camera takes one photograph each time
the shutter-release button is pressed),
Continuous (the camera records photos
at up to 5 frames per second while the
shutter release button is held down), and
Electronic (Hi) (the camera records pho-
tos at high rates while the shutter-release
button is held down).
A Electronic (Hi)
Choose from frame rates of 10 fps, 30 fps, and 60 fps ( 0 44). The flash
does not fire while Electronic (Hi) is in effect. At the default setting of
10 fps, the camera takes pictures at about 10 frames per second (fps)
while the shutter-release button is pressed and camera focuses on the
subject in the center of the frame; face detection (
0 10) is not available.
The camera can record up to about 13 frames in a single burst. At frame
rates of 30 and 60 fps, face detection is available but focus and expo-
sure are fixed at the values for the first photograph in each series; the
number of frames that can be recorded in a single burst is about 12.
A Continuous
If the flash is used, the camera will take only one photograph each time
the shutter-release button is pressed. Lower the flash before taking pic-
tures.
A Shooting in Electronic (Hi) and Continuous Release Modes
While photographs are being recorded to the memory card, the access
lamp will light. Depending on shooting conditions and memory card
write speed, recording may take up to about one minute. If the battery
is exhausted before all photographs are recorded, the shutter release
will be disabled and the remaining images transferred to the memory
card.
