C:Continuous shooting

Shots are taken continuously at the rate of up to approx. 4.5 fps as long as you keep the shutter release button fully depressed.

Cs: Continuous silent-low-speed shooting

Shots are taken continuously at the rate of up to approx. 3 fps as long as you keep the shutter release button fully depressed. Film rewind speed also slows down and there is little rewind noise.

Film advance speed is tested using camera settings of focus mode C, exposure mode ¢, shutter speed 1/250 sec. or faster, aperture other than maximum, at normal temperature of 20°C (68°F), with AA-type alkaline-manganese batteries, for the first to 36th frames of a film.

•When the batteries are exhausted, film advance speed slows down since film advance automatically switches to start after the mirror is all the way down. (Normally, film advance starts immediately when the mirror starts to go down.) In this case, battery change is recommended.
