SEQUENTIAL SHOOTING
There are 4 sequential shooting modes: high speed sequential shooting,
sequential shooting, AF sequential shooting and auto bracketing. Except for
auto bracketing, the exposure and white balance are locked at the first frame.
Sequential shooting cannot be performed when the record mode is set to TIFF.
Sequential shooting mode
o
Shoots one frame at a time when the shutter button is pressed.
(Normal shooting mode, single-frame shooting)
i
Pictures can be taken at a faster speed than normal sequential
shooting.
Approx. 5 frames at 1.6 frames/sec.
j
The focus is locked at the first frame. The sequential shooting speed
varies depending on the Record mode setting.
Approx. 17 frames (in HQ mode) can be taken in sequence.
k
Adjusts the focus 1 frame at a time. The AF sequential shooting speed
is slower than normal sequential shooting.
7
When auto bracketing is set, the exposure is changed automatically for
each frame while holding down the shutter button. The exposure
differential and number of frames can be selected in the menus. The
focus and white balance are locked at the first frame.

MODE DIAL AND DIRECT BUTTON FUNCTIONS - Direct buttons
Digital ESP metering
:
Meters the center of the subject and the surrounding
area separately.
Spot metering (
5
)
:
Exposure is determined by metering within the
metering target area. In this mode, a subject can be
shot with optimal exposure regardless of the
background light.
Multi-metering
(
5
MULTI
)
:
Meters the brightness of the subject at up to 8 different
points to set the optimal exposure based on the
average brightness. This method is useful with a high
contrast subject.
Center-weighted
metering (
4
)
:
Meters the brightness over a wide area with emphasis
on the center of the screen. This method is used when
you do not want to let the brightness of the surrounding
area affect the picture.
