Continuous-advance notes
CONTINUOUS ADVANCE
The continuous-advance drive mode can capture images at a rate of approximately 2.5 fps with 2272x1704 images and 2.2 fps with images of other sizes. Focus and exposure is set for each image when the continuous-AF focus mode is used, but the rate of capture is reduced. When the red low-battery warning appears or the flash is used, the rate of capture is also reduced.
The following chart lists the approximate maximum number of images that can be captured.
Size | 2272 X 1704 | 1600 X 1200 | 1280 X 960 | 640 X 480 |
Quality | 2 | 5 | 11 | 60 |
Fine |
Standard | 5 | 6 | 50 | 97 |
Economy | 5 | 51 | 72 | 115 |
UHS CONTINUOUS ADVANCE
UHS continuous-advance captures up to fifteen 1280x960 images at 10fps regardless of the image quality setting. The flash and the digital zoom cannot be used. When the red low-battery warning is displayed, this drive mode cannot be used.
Shutter speeds must be 1/20 second or faster. Very bright light sources in the scene may cause streaks to appear on the image. Black areas caused by data loss may also be apparent.
