Choose the frame rate for continuous shooting (063) from 5,
15, 30, and 60fps. An electronic shutter is used at rates of 15fps
and above; except when On is selected for Silent photography,
a mechanical shutter is used when 5 fps is selected.
Select On to reduce camera noise in quiet surroundings. The
camera uses an electronic shutter and silences the sounds pro-
duced when the camera controls are operated. Selecting Off
restores normal operation.
Choose the number of shots selected by the Smart Photo Selec-
tor. If 5 is selected, the camera will save the best shot and 4 best
shot candidates. If 1 is selected, the camera will save only the
best shot.
Choose a frame rate for slow motion movies (053). The faster
the frame rate, the smaller the frame size.
*All figures are approximate. Slow motion movies will play back over a period
of about 13.2 (400fps) or 40 (1200 fps) times the recording time.
