3Setting the Image-recording Quality

The maximum burst is displayed even when a card is not in the camera. Make sure that a card is loaded before taking a picture.

If [8C.Fn II -2: High ISO speed noise reduction] is set to [2: Strong], the maximum burst will be greatly reduced (p.176).

If the viewfinder displays “99” for the maximum burst, it means the maximum burst is 99 or higher. If 98 or lower is displayed, the maximum burst is 98 or lower. If you stop the continuous shooting, the maximum burst will increase. After all the captured images are written to the card, the maximum burst will be as listed on page 55.

i: Setting the ISO SpeedN
