Continuous shot

You can select the type of shooting and the number of continuous shots.

[SINGLE]	: Take one picture only	AEB
[CONTINUOUS] : Images will be taken
		M. CAPTURE
	continuously until the shutter	HIGH SPEED
		CONTINUOUS
	button is released.
		SINGLE
	The shooting capacity depends
	on the memory.
[HIGH SPEED]	: This takes 3 shots continuously
	(about 2.5 shots per second) when the shutter is pressed
	down and held.
[M. CAPTURE]	: This takes 7 shots per second, when the shutter is pressed
	and held down. After completing the continuous shooting,
	images are saved and the images play back on the Rear
	LCD. The maximum number of shots is 20 and the image
	size is fixed as 1024x768.
[AEB]	: Take three pictures in a series using different exposures :
	standard exposure (0.0EV), Short exposure (-1/2EV) and
	over exposure (+1/2EV).

High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time, which increases stand-by time.

If the [CONTINUOUS], [HIGH SPEED], [M. CAPTURE] or [AEB] sub menu is selected, the flash is switched off automatically.

It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to save each image file is longer and blurring caused by camera shake may occur.

When the [M. CAPTURE] menu is selected, you only can select ISO AUTO, 400, 800, 1600, 3200.

The ACB function is not available when the [HIGH SPEED], [M.CAPTURE] or [AEB] options are enabled.

Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter pictures.

[MULTI]	: Exposure will be calculated based on
	an average of the available light in the
	image area. However, the calculation	CENTER
		SPOT
	will be biased towards the centre of
		MULTI
	the image area.
	This is suitable for general use.
[SPOT]	: Only the rectangular area in the centre
	of the LCD monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable when
	you want the subject in the centre correctly exposed, regardless
	of the back lighting.
[CENTER]	: Exposure will be calculated based on an average of the available
	light in the image area. However, the calculation will be biased
	towards the centre of the image area. This is suitable for taking a
	picture of small objects like a flower or insects.

If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.
