Minolta 800si instruction manual Appendix, Film Drive Modes

FILM DRIVE MODES

The 800si has two film-drive modes: Continuous Advance and Single Frame Advance . In Single Frame Advance, the camera makes one exposure and advances the film one frame each time the shutter-release button is pressed. In Continuous Advance, the camera will release the shutter and advance the film (up to 3 frames per second) as long as the shutter-release button is held down.

Press the self-timer/drive- mode button in the control panel.

Turn either control dial until appears in the data panel.

Press the shutter-release button partway down to enter the setting.

•When Autofocus Priority is selected, the shutter will not release until sharp focus is confirmed. To release the shutter even if sharp focus is not confirmed, change Customized Function #1 (AF Priority/Release Priority) to Release priority (setting 2). See page 69 and page 102.

•When the camera is in release-priority mode (RP), the shutter releases even if the subject is not in focus.

•Lens "Power Zoom" functions do not operate in Continuous mode (AF Zoom xi and AF Power Zoom lenses included).
