Drive modes

The drive modes control the rate and methodof image capture. Indicators indicating the selected drive mode appear on the monitor. The drive mode is selected in section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). If auto reset (p. 55) is active, the drive mode is reset to single-frame advance when the camera is turned off.

Single-frame advance – to take a single image each time the shutter-release button is pressed. This is the camera’s default setting.

Continuous advance – to take multiple images when the shutter-release button is pressed and held (p. 45).

Self-timer – to delay the release of the shutter (p. 46). Used for self-portraits.

Multi frame – to create a composite image of a nine-frame series when the shutter- release button is pressed once (p. 47).
