Continuous Shooting (j, k, l, m Mode)

BNotes on Continuous

Flash cannot be used during continuous shooting (except for interval timer shooting). The focus, exposure, and white balance settings are fixed at the values for the first picture in each series.

It may take some time to save the images after shooting. The amount of time it takes to finish saving the captured images depends on the number of images, image quality, image size, the write speed of the memory card, etc.

When ISO sensitivity increases, noise may appear in captured images.

The speed of continuous shooting may decrease depending on the image quality, image size, type of memory card used, and shooting conditions.

When continuous is set to Pre-shooting cache, Continuous H: 120 fps, Continuous H: 60 fps or Multi-shot 16, banding or variance in brightness or hue may occur in images that were captured under lighting that flickers at high speeds, such as fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium- vapor lighting.

When continuous is set to Pre-shooting cache, Continuous H: 120 fps or Continuous H: 60 fps, accurate exposure may not be achieved (images may be overexposed) in images captured on bright sunny days.

This feature cannot be used simultaneously with certain functions. See “Functions that Cannot be Applied Simultaneously” (A104) for more information.

BNote on Best Shot Selector

BSS is suited for shooting stationary subjects. BSS may not produce the desired results if the subject moves or the composition changes.

CImages Captured in Continuous

Each time images are captured using Continuous H, Continuous L, Pre-shooting cache, Continuous H: 120 fps or Continuous H: 60 fps, the captured images are saved as a “sequence” (A113).
