When the Self-Timer is used, the number of recordable pictures in Burst Mode is fixed to 3. (5 pictures in [ ])

The burst speed (pictures/second) may become slower depending on the recording environment such as in dark places, if the ISO sensitivity is high etc.

Burst Mode is not canceled when the camera is switched off.

The flash setting is fixed to [Œ] (except for [ ]).

The Burst Mode cannot be used in the following cases.

When the Self-timer is set to [10s / 3pictures]

[Toy Effect]/[Miniature Effect]/[Soft Focus]/[Star Filter] (Creative Control Mode)

[Panorama Shot]/[Handheld Night Shot]/[HDR]/[3D Photo Mode] (Scene Mode)

The zoom cannot be used when recording burst pictures.

Depending on the operating conditions, it may take time to take the next picture if you repeat taking a picture.

It may take time to save pictures taken in Burst Mode on the card. If you take pictures continuously while saving, the maximum number of recordable pictures decreases. For continuous shooting, use of a high speed memory card is recommended.

When [ ], [ ] or [ ] is selected, [Quality] can only be set to [A] or [].

Recording is performed by the electronic shutter when [ ] or [ ] is selected, so the recorded picture may appear warped.

When using AF Lock, the camera does not adjust the focus of each picture even if you use the setting [ ] or [ ].

When [ ] or [ ] is set, focus prediction will be performed in a possible range to prioritize the burst speed. Therefore, if you try to take a picture of a subject that is moving fast, it may have trouble with focusing or it may take time to focus.

When [ ], [ ] or [ ] is set, the recording may be brighter or darker from the second picture depending on changes in the brightness of the subject.

(DMC-FZ60)

When using AF Lock, the camera does not adjust the focus of each picture even if you use the setting [ ] or [ ].

When [ ] or [ ] is set, focus prediction will be performed in a possible range to prioritize the burst speed. Therefore, if you try to take a picture of a subject that is moving fast, it may have trouble with focusing or it may take time to focus.

When [ ] is set, the recording may be brighter or darker from the second picture depending on changes in the brightness of the subject.
