Serial exposures
In the factory settings, the camera has been set to single pictures,
but you can also take serial exposures, e.g. to shoot sequences of
movement in several stages. Use Menu control to set in advance
whether you want to take single or serial pictures.
Setting the function
1. Select the menu item
Drive Mode
, and
2. in the sub-menu
Single
or
Continuous
.
After you have made the setting, serial exposures will be taken for
as long as you keep the shutter button
18
fully pressed down (and
there is sufficient capacity on the memory card). If you only press
it briefly, the camera continues to take single pictures.
Approx. 40 pictures (in
JPG
format) can be taken in rapid succes-
sion at a maximum rate of approx. 5 pictures per second. After
this, the image frequency is reduced slightly.
Notes:
• The specified picture frequency and the maximum possible num-
ber of pictures in a series relate to a default setting –
ISO 200
and
L-JPG
format. With different settings, or depending on the
picture content,
White Balance
setting and the memory card
used, the frequency and number may be lower.
• Regardless of how many pictures have been taken in a series,
both review modes initially show the last picture in the series or
the last picture in the series saved on the card while saving is
still ongoing.
