Selecting the Drive Mode

During continuous shooting, the captured images
are first stored in the camera’s internal memory
and then successively transferred to the CF card.
When the internal memory becomes full during
continuous shooting, “

the viewfinder and the camera cannot take any more shots. As the
captured images are transferred to the CF card, you will be able to
capture more images. Press the shutter button halfway to check in the
