Continuous Shutter Precautions

If there is not enough available capacity on the memory card, you may not be able to record the number of CS images indicated on the monitor screen. Make sure your memory card has sufficient remaining capacity before shooting with using continuous shutter.

With continuous shutter, exposure and focus for the first image are applied for successive images as well.

When using a continuous shutter mode, keep the camera still until shooting is finished.

In the High-speed CS mode, the flash setting automatically becomes ? (flash off).

Zoom is disabled during continuous shutter operations.

RAW+, 9M, 3:2, or 16:9 cannot be selected as the image size while High-speed CS or Flash CS is being used. If you enter the High-speed CS or Flash CS mode while one of these image sizes is selected, the camera will record 8M size images.

If 8M is selected as the image size in the High-speed CS mode, selecting a CS speed of 40 fps will cause 7M (3072x2304) size images to be recorded.

The maximum number of images that can be recorded during each High-speed CS or Flash CS session is limited, regardless of how much memory card storage capacity is available.

High-speed CS

Up to 40 images

Flash CS with flash

Up to 3 to 10 images

 

 

The number of images will be restricted even further or shooting may be impossible when remaining memory card capacity is less than the allowable number of images for a particular CS mode.

The Triple Self-time cannot be used in the High-speed CS and Flash CS.

The Self-timer cannot be used in the Prerecord (Still image) mode.

When the flash is fired for Flash CS, the greater the number of images setting, the smaller the flash range (shooting range).

With some BEST SHOT scenes, the current mode dial setting (× (High-speed CS), ª (Flash CS)) is ignored.
