Shooting multiple frames

— Clip MotionMode dial:

You can shoot a number of consecutive still images (GIF animation). The GIF format has a small file size, making it convenient for creating home pages or attaching images to e-mail.

Due to the limitations of the GIF format, the number of colors for Clip Motion images is reduced to 256 colors or less. Therefore, the image quality may deteriorate for some images.

Normal (160×120)

Clip Motion of up to 10 frames can be recorded. This is suitable for use on home pages, etc.

Mobile (120×108)

Clip Motion of up to two frames can be recorded. This is suitable for use with portable data terminals.

The file size is reduced in Mobile mode, so the image quality deteriorates.
