Selecting a Recording Mode
Your camera has a variety of
different recording modes. Before
shooting, use the mode dial to
select the recording mode that suits
the type of subject you are trying to
record.
Flash CS
This mode will record consecutive images while firing the flash. See page 56 for
details.
Normal Speed CS/High Speed CS (Prerecord CS)
With Normal Speed CS, the number of consecutive images you can shoot is
theoretically unlimited, as long as there is memory available to store them. Also
note that the maximum shooting speed of Normal Speed CS is limited by the
type of memory card you are using and the camera setup. See page 57 for
details.
With High Speed CS, the camera continues to shoot images as long as you
keep the shutter button depressed, and you can change the shooting speed
while recording is in progress. You can record up to 30 images. In this mode,
half-pressing the shutter button starts continual pre-recording of images to a
temporary buffer. Then when you press the shutter button the rest of the way
down, the camera saves the buffer contents and perform real-time continuous
shutter recording of new images until you release the shutter button. See page
58 for details.
• Note that even if the mode dial is set to
Õ
(High Speed CS), High Speed CS
image recording is not possible while “Normal Speed CS” is selected for the
“CS” setting (pages 57, 58).
Single Shot
Continuous shutter recording is disabled when this mode is selected. Each
press of the shutter button records a single image. See page 26 for details.
