3 Start shooting.
Highlight Start and press J. Shooting
starts after about 3 s. The camera
takes photographs at the selected
interval, starting at the focus distance
selected at the start of shooting and
progressing out toward infinity by the
selected focus step distance with each shot. Shooting ends
when the selected number of shots has been taken or focus
reaches infinity. To end shooting before all shots have been
taken, select Off for Focus shift shooting in the photo
shooting menu or press the shutter-release button halfway or
press the J button between shots.
A During Shooting
During focus shift photography, the Q
icon will flash in the control panel.
Immediately before the next shot, the
shutter speed display will show the number
of shots remaining. Regardless of the option
selected for Custom Setting c2 (Standby timer, 0 263), the standby
timer will not expire during shooting.
Settings can be adjusted, the menus used, and pictures played back
while focus shift photography is in progress. The monitor will turn off
automatically about four seconds before each shot. Note that
changing camera settings while focus shift photography is in progress
may cause shooting to end.
