Using the Burst Setting

Burst allows you to take 2 or 3 pictures (depending on the shutter speed) as quickly as possible when you press the Shutter button all the way down. Pressing the Shutter button all the way down again takes another sequence of 2 or 3 pictures.

1.Press the Timer/Burst button until Burst appears in the Image Display.

2.Frame the subject and press the Shutter button halfway down to lock the focus and exposure. Then press the Shutter button all the way down and hold it. The camera takes up to 3 pictures as quickly as possible until you release the Shutter button or the camera runs out of memory.

The Image Display remains off during the burst capture. After the burst pictures have been taken, each image appears one at a time on the Image Display.

When Burst is selected, the Burst icon will appear in the Live View screen. The Burst setting remains in effect until it is changed again, or until it resets to the default Normal timer/ burst setting when you turn the camera off. To save changed settings, use My Mode (see page 55).

NOTE: The Burst setting is not available while recording video clips, in Panorama or Document shooting modes, nor when you are using AE Bracketing. You also cannot record audio when using the Burst setting, but you can add an audio clip later (see Record Audio on page 103). Also, the flash is not available while using the Burst setting.
