STANDARD AND HIGH SPEED CONTINUOUS ADVANCE
Continuous-advance 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 depends on the image-quality setting; five with RAW images, and three with the other options. 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. The built-in flash can be used, but the rate of capture is reduced because the flash must recharge between frames.
Turn the function dial to the drive mode position (1). Press the function button in the center of the dial (2). Turn the front control dial to select the continuous- advance drive mode (3). Use the rear control dial (4) to switch between standard and high-speed continuous advance. Press the shutter-release button partway down or press the function button to set the mode.
Standard continuous advance
High-speed continuous advance
Continuous advance - captures a series of images at 2.0fps. When used with continuous autofocus, the camera will adjust the focus during the series. The live image will be briefly displayed between frames.
High-speed continuous advance - captures a series of full-size images at 2.8fps. The rate of cap- ture decreases with images smaller than 2560 X 1920. Focus is locked with the first frame regardless of the focusing mode. The live image will freeze during the series.
