4.Half-press and hold the shutter button to start pre-recording of images. A preset number of images are pre-recorded. The pre-recorded images are continually updated until you full-press the shutter button.

If you release the half-pressed shutter button before pressing it the rest of the way down, all of the pre-recorded images currently in the buffer will be deleted.

The camera will not emit shutter sounds as it pre-records images.

5.Press the shutter button the rest of the way down.

This will save the pre-recorded images and start shooting new images in real- time. Images continue to be shot as long as you keep the shutter button depressed.

6.Shooting will stop when you release the shutter button or after the maximum number of shots is reached.

7.Save the CS images (page 56).

NOTE

CS settings (“High Speed CS”, “Normal Speed CS”, “F CS”) are disabled and will always be recorded as High Speed CS shots. Control panel operations, recording, and precautions are the same as those that apply to High Speed CS (page 51).

Note, however, that the A, S, and M exposure modes cannot be used.

Prerecord CS (pre-recording of images before the shutter button is full-pressed) is not performed if you full-press the shutter button without half-pressing first. Whenever possible, be sure to half-press the shutter button, compose the image, and then full-press the shutter button.
