Konica Minolta DiMAGE_A2 instruction manual Drive Modes

Drive Modes

The drive modes control the rate and method of image capture. Indicators showing the selected drive mode appear on the data panel and monitors. The drive mode is set with the function dial (p. 60).

Single-frame advance - to take a single image each time the shutter-release button is pressed (p. 33).

Bracketing - to take a series of three images with differing exposure, contrast, saturation, or color (p. 62).

Continuous advance - to take a series of three images when the shutter- release button is pressed and held (p. 64).

High-speed continuous advance - to take a series of three images at approxi- mately 2.7 frames per second (p. 64).

UHS (Ultra High Speed) continuous advance - to take multiple 640 X 480 size images at approximately 7 frames per second (p. 64).

Interval - to take a series of images over a period of time (p. 66).

Interval and time-lapse movie - to take a series of still images and a movie clip of a slow moving event (p. 66).

Self-timer- to delay the release of the shutter by 10 or 2 seconds. Used for self-portraits (p. 68).

When a large amount of image data is captured in a short period, the camera’s internal buffer memory becomes full; the frame counter turns yellow on the monitors. Time must be given for this data to be written to the memory card. Wait for the indicator to turn white before capturing more images.
