DContinuous Mode

Only one picture will be taken if the flash fires when Iis selected; at settings of 10, 20, 30, and 60 fps, the built-in flash will not fire.

While photographs are being recorded to the memory card, the memory card access lamp will light. Depending on shooting conditions and memory card write speed, recording may take some time. If the battery is exhausted before all photographs are recorded, the shutter release will be disabled and the remaining images transferred to the memory card.

Continuous shooting is not available in creative modes other than P, S, A, or M, in best moment capture, advanced movie, or Motion Snapshot mode, or when live image control is used in auto mode (0 30).

ABuffer Size

The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage, allowing shoot- t ing to continue while photographs are being saved to the memory card. The approximate number of images that can be stored in the

memory buffer at current settings is displayed while the shutter-release button is

pressed halfway (this number is an approximation only and varies with shooting conditions). The illustration shows the display when space remains in the buffer for about 20 pictures.

ASingle Frame

To take only one picture each time the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down, select 8(single frame) for release mode.
