CONTINUOUS ADVANCE

In this mode, the camera continues to release the shutter and advance the film as long as the shutter-release button is held down.

1.Press the drive-mode button until continuous advance indicator appears

on the data panel.

2.Press and hold the shutter-release button to begin taking a series of

pictures.

•The camera takes a maximum of 1.7 frames per second when the shutter- speed is 1/250 second or above, flash set to flash cancel, and new batteries. The frame rate is slower when using the built-in flash as the flash must charge between exposures. With accessory flashes, the shutter will continue to release even if the flash is charging.

•With moving subjects or the sports subject program, the shutter will release only when the camera has focused on the subject between exposures.

•To return to single frame mode, press the drive-mode button until single frame advance indicator appears on the data panel.

•AF zoom xi and power zoom lenses cannot be zoomed when taking pictures with continuous advance.
