Setting the Image-Recording Quality
With Custom Controls, you can assign the image size to the < B >
button, Multi function button 2, or depth-of-field preview button so you
can switch to it temporarily. If you assign [
One-touch image quality
setting ] or [ One-touch image quality (hold) ] to one of these buttons,
you can switch the image-recording quality quickly and shoot.
For details, see Custom Controls (p.445).
The approximate maximum burst is
displayed on the viewfinder’s right
side, on the Quick Control screen,
and on the bottom of the Custom
Quick Control screen.
If the maximum burst for
continuous shooting is 99 or higher,
“99” will be displayed.
One-touch Image Quality Setting
Maximum Burst for Continuous Shooting
Under [ 5 1: Record func+card/folder sel. ], if [ Record func. ] is set to [ Rec.
separately ], you cannot switch to the One-touch image quality setting.
The maximum burst is displayed even when a card is not inserted in the
camera. Make sure that a card is inserted before taking a picture.
If the maximum burst is displayed as “ 99 ”, it indicates that you can shoot 99
or more shots continuously. If the maximum burst decreases to 98 or lower
and the internal buffer memory becomes full, “
buSY ” will be displayed in the
viewfinder and on the top LCD panel. Shooting will then be disabled
temporarily. If you stop continuous shooting, the maximum burst will
increase. After all the captured images are written to the card, you can
resume continuous shooting and shoot up to the maximum burst listed in the
table on page 158.
