BNotes on Continuous Shooting

Focus, exposure and white balance are fixed at the values determined with the first shot in each series.

The frame rate may become slower depending on the image quality, image size, memory card type or shooting conditions (such as when recording RAW images).

Some features cannot be used in combination with other menu settings. See “Features Not Available in Combination“ (A74) for more information.

BNotes on Continuous H

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, the write speed of the memory card, etc.

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

Banding or variance in brightness or hue may occur in images that were captured under lighting that flashes quickly at high speeds, such as fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.

BNote on BSS

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

BNote on Multi-shot 16

Banding or variance in brightness or hue may occur in images that were captured under lighting that flashes quickly at high speeds, such as fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.
