Snapshot Tutorial
Half-pressing and holding the shutter button causes a pre-record buffer to be
continually updated with images. When the shutter button is fully pressed, buffer
contents are recorded along with a series of real-time images. Use Prerecord CS
when you want to make sure you do not miss fast-moving action.
1.
Perform steps 1 through 10 under “Shooting with High Speed CS”
(page 61), and specify the CS speed and the maximum number of shots
settings for each continuous shutter operation.
• After you specify the maximum number of shots, press [
4
] instead of [SET].
2.
Use [
8
] and [
2
] to select the
(Pre-record CS Shots) Control Panel
option and then press [SET].
3.
Use [
8
] and [
2
] to select the number of Prerecord (Still) images and
then press [SET].
• Settings: 0 shots, 3 shots, 5 shots, 10 shots, 15 shots, 20 shots, 25 shots
• If you select “0 shots”, no pre-record images will be stored when you half-press
the shutter button.
4.
Half-press and hold the shutter button to start pre-recording.
A pre-record buffer is continually updated with images as long as the shutter
button is pressed.
• The camera will not emit shutter sounds as it pre-records images.
• Releasing the half-pressed shutter button will cause the contents of the pre-
record buffer to be deleted.
5.
Full press and hold down the shutter button.
This will record the images in the pre-record buffer followed by real-time recorded
images. Shooting of images will continue as long as you depress the shutter or
until the maximum number of images specified by “High Speed CS fps” is
reached.
