Advanced shooting

Shooting pictures sequentially (Sequential shooting)

This function allows you to take a rapid succession of still pictures by pressing

and holding the shutter button (over 8 pictures at 1.5 frames per second in

HQ mode). As you can choose the best picture from a series of sequential

shots, you are recommended to use this mode when taking a moving subject.

You can also erase the unwanted shots afterwards. “Single-frame erase”

( p.61)

press .

closed.

4Take the pictures.

Press the shutter button fully and keep it pressed. The camera will take

pictures in sequence until you release the button.

• The sequential shooting mode is canceled when the lens barrier is

closed. “Saving the settings (All Reset)” ( p.78)

• During sequential shooting, the flash is disabled.

• Since the shutter speed is set to 1/30 sec. max., exposure is

decreased when shooting a dark subject to prevent camera shake.

• The number of pictures that can be shot in succession and the

sequential shooting speed vary depending on the subject, the record

mode, whether the pictures are stored on the card or in the internal

memory, and the amount of space available on the card or in the

internal memory.

It takes longer than usual to store pictures after sequential shooting.
