Panasonic DMC LX 3 Taking pictures by specifying the aperture/shutter speed, Aperture-priority AE

Advanced (Recording pictures)

•The burst speed values given above apply when the shutter speed is 1/60 or faster and when the flash is not activated.

Note

•When the burst mode setting is set to Unlimited

–The burst speed becomes slower halfway. The exact timing of this depends on the type of card, the picture size and the quality.

–You can take pictures until the capacity of the built-in memory or the card is full.

•The focus is fixed when the first picture is taken.

•When the burst speed is set to [˜], the exposure and white balance are fixed at the settings used for the first picture for the subsequent pictures as well. When the burst speed is set to [ò], they are adjusted each time you take a picture.

•When the self-timer is used, the number of recordable pictures in burst mode is fixed to 3.

•If you are following a moving subject while taking pictures in a place (landscape) indoors, outdoors etc. where there is a large difference between the light and shade, it may take time until the exposure is stable. If burst is used at this time, the exposure may not become optimal.

•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.

•If you take pictures in burst mode with the built-in memory, it will take time to write the picture data.

•[Œ] is set for the flash when burst is set.

•When burst mode is set, auto bracket, multi aspect and [MULTI FILM] settings will be canceled.

•Number of burst mode is fixed to 3 pictures when external flash is used.
