Konica Minolta S414 instruction manual Remote Control Sold Separately, Continuous Advance

REMOTE CONTROL (SOLD SEPARATELY)

The IR Remote Control RC-3 allows remote camera operation up to 5m (16 ft.) away. The remote control unit can be used in movie recording (p. 68).

Place the camera on a tripod, and set the drive mode to self-timer / remote control (p. 32).

Arrange the camera and subject to compose the picture. Frame the subject within the focus frame when setting up the camera.

Focus lock cannot be used with the IR remote control. In multi-function recording mode, focus area selection can be used for off-center subjects (p. 52).

CONTINUOUS ADVANCE

The continuous-advance drive mode allows a series of images to be captured while holding down the shutter-release button. Continuous advance acts like a motor drive on a film camera. The number of images that can be captured at one time and the rate of capture depend on the image-quality and image-size setting. The maximum rate of capture is 1.6 fps. The continuous-advance mode is set with the drive-mode button (p. 32).

When the shutter-release button is pressed and held, the camera will begin
recording images until the maximum number has been taken or the shutter
button is released. This mode cannot be used with TIFF images (p. 44).
The built-in flash can be used, but the rate of capture is reduced because
the flash must recharge between frames.	2
Compose the picture as described in the basic recording operation section
(p. 25). Press the shutter-release button partway down (1) to lock the
exposure and focus for the series. Press and hold the
shutter-release button all the way down	(2) to begin

While pointing the emitter window of the remote control unit toward the camera, press the release button or the delay button to take the picture. When the release button is pressed, the self-timer lamp on the front of the camera will blink once before the picture is taken. When the delay button is pressed, the self-timer lamp on the front of the camera will blink for two seconds before the picture is taken.

The drive mode does not reset after the exposure so multiply images can be captured.

The remote control may not operate with backlit subjects or under fluorescent light.
