Õ (Continuous Shutter)
Using High Speed CS and Prerecord CS
With High Speed CS, you can configure the camera to shoot at a speed of 3, 5, 10, 15, or 30 images per second, as long as you keep the shutter button and there is memory available to store the images. With Prerecord CS, half-pressing the shutter button starts continual pre-recording of images to a temporary buffer. Then when you press the shutter button the rest of the way down, the camera stores what is currently in the buffer and starts real-time continuous shutter recording of new images. Real- time recording continues until you release the shutter button or until a total of up to 30 images (buffer images plus new images) are recorded. You can configure Prerecord CS to specify how many of the 30 images are recorded in the buffer and how many are recorded after you fully press the shutter button. Use Prerecord CS when you want to make sure you do not miss fast-moving action.
