Recording pictures (basic)

•The ways to control the exposure and the white balance vary depending on the burst mode setting. When the burst mode is set

to [ ] or [ ], they are fixed to the values set for the first picture.

When the burst speed is set to [ ], they are adjusted each time you take a

picture.

•When setting the burst mode, the auto review function is activated regardless of the setting on the auto review function. (The picture is not enlarged.) Moreover, the settings for the auto review function on the [SETUP] menu are disabled.

•Burst mode is not cancelled when the camera is switched off.

•Burst mode will not perform as described if a MultiMediaCard is used in place of an SD Memory Card. The reading/writing speed of a MultiMediaCard is slower than that of an SD Memory Card.
