The camera does not combine pictures in the following cases:
•When the zoom ratio exceeds 20 times
•[Burst] mode
In the case that a single picture is going to be composed from a burst, a message
indicating that multiple pictures are to be recorded appears on the screen and burst
recording is carried out. Note that burst recording will not take place if the camera
determines that it can compensate for the difference in contrast without composing the
picture from a burst.
In the case of composition from a burst, afterimages may appear if the subject was
moving.
