The Shooting Menu (
A
(Auto) Mode)
Reference Section
The icon for the current setting other than
Single
is displayed on the monitor (
A
8).
B Notes on Continuous Shooting
• Focus, exposure and white balance are fixed at the values determined with the first shot in each
series.
• The frame rate may become slower depending on the image quality, image size, memory card
type or shooting conditions.
• The frame rate may become slower when ISO sensitivity (E37) in the shooting menu is set to
1600 or 3200.
• Some features cannot be used in combination with other menu settings. See “Features Not
Available in Combination“ (A64) for more information.
B Notes on Continuous H
• It may take some time to save the images after shooting. The amount of time it takes to finish saving
the captured images depends on the number of images, the write speed of the memory card, etc.
• When ISO sensitivity increases, noise may appear in captured images.
• Banding or variance in brightness or hue may occur in images that were captured under lighting
that flashes quickly at high speeds, such as fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.
B Note on BSS
BSS is suited for shooting stationary subjects. BSS may not produce the desired results if the subject
moves or the composition changes.
B Note on Multi-shot 16
Banding or variance in brightness or hue may occur in images that were captured under lighting
that flashes quickly at high speeds, such as fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.
C Using Continuous shooting mode in combination with the self-timer
If you use Continuous shooting mode in combination with the self-timer (A53) with an n2s (2
seconds) setting, pictures can be shot continuously by reducing camera shake.
To use the self-timer (A53) when Continuous H, Continuous L or BSS is selected for the
Continuous setting, keep pressing the shutter-release button all the way. When you release the
shutter-release button, Single is automatically selected and the camera captures only one picture at
a time.
W Multi-shot 16
Each time the shutter-release button is
pressed all the way, the camera shoots
16 pictures at a rate of about 30 frames per
second and arranges them in a single picture.
• The image mode is fixed at L (2560 × 1920
pixels).
• The digital zoom is not available.
