cCautions

•Focus and exposure are determined by the first frame in each series. The flash turns off automatically; the previously-selected flash mode is restored when the shooting mode is changed.

•Frame rate varies with shutter speed, shooting condi- tions, and the number of pictures in each burst.

•The number of pictures that can be taken in a single burst varies with the scene and camera settings. The number of pictures that can be recorded depends on the memory available.

•If the self-timer is used when Land Nare selected, only one picture will be taken when the shutter but- ton is pressed.

•At a setting of J, white lines may appear in bright areas of the image; these can be avoided by choosing Kmode.
