To resolve the time lag from when you press the shutter button all the way down until

the recording of images starts, the sequential shooting using the electronic shutter

starts when the shutter button is pressed halfway and the recording of images including

those for a halfway press to the card starts when the shutter button is pressed all the

way down.
