While shutter-release button is held down, pictures are recorded at rate of about 3 frames every 2 seconds (rate of shooting will slow when < icon is displayed). With E3200, camera records 3 shots when image mode is set to b Normal (2048), and with E2200, 6 shots when image mode is set to c (1600). Focus, exposure, and white balance are determined by first shot in each series. Camera focuses continuously, even when shutter-release button is not pressed.

\Sport spectator

Sport spectator is ideal for capturing those instants when you have no time to compose the picture. Use at ranges of 3 m to infinity.

A series of shots can be taken by holding the shutter-release button down. Number of shots that can be taken is the same as for j (Sports) mode.

] Sport composite

Each time shutter-release button is pressed, camera takes 16 shots in about two seconds and arranges them in four rows to form a single picture. Focus, exposure, and white balance are determined by first shot in each series.
