INFORMATION

The default metering mode is Multi pattern metering.

If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, It is better to use exposure compensation.

Continuous shot

Select the number of pictures in continuous shooting.

[Single]

: Take one picture only

[Continuous]

: Images will be taken continuously until the

 

shutter button is released. The shooting

 

capacity depends on the memory.

High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time, which increases stand-by time.

If the [Continuous] sub menu is selected, the flash will be off automatically.
