The burst speed is constant regardless of
the transfer speed of the card.
• The number of pictures indicated is when
the shutter speed is faster than 1/60 and the
flash is not activated.
• The burst speed (pictures/second) may
become slower depending on the recording
environment such as in dark places, if the
ISO sensitivity is high etc.
• If you take pictures in burst mode with the
built-in memory, it will take time to write the
picture data.
• Hold down the shutter button fully to activate
the burst mode.
• You can have higher speed burst if you use
[HI-SPEED BURST] in scene mode. Refer to

halfway.

the built-in memory or the card is full.
• The focus is fixed when the first picture is
taken.

depending on the burst mode setting. When

], they
are adjusted each time you take a picture.
• If you are following a moving subject while
taking pictures in a place (landscape)
indoors, outdoors etc. where there is a large
difference between the light and shade, it
may take time until the exposure is stable. If
burst is used at this time, the exposure may
not become optimal.

recordable pictures in burst mode is fixed to
3.

camera is switched off.
