Pre-shooting cache

When the pre-shooting cache is used, it improves the chance of capturing a good picture. Up to five frames are recorded just before the shutter-release button is pressed down fully. The camera starts shooting when the shutter-release button is pressed down halfway, and shoots pictures continuously when the button is then pressed down fully (A65).

The shooting ends when the shutter-release button is released or 25 frames have been shot continuously.

•Frame rate: Maximum 15 fps
