Using the different
shooting modes
Switching the camera on
sets it to single frames
(SingleShot). In addition,
there are the Continuous,
Multishot 16 and Self-timer
modes.
To select one of these
modes, press the MENU
button on the camera back
and use the four-way control
to select Drive Mode. Then
use the four-way control to
select either Single,
Continuous, Multishot 16 or
Self-timer by pressing the
Right arrow
.
Flash is disabled in the
Continuous and Multishot 16
modes.
The Continuous mode is
ideal for shooting motion
sequences (sports / dance /
action), since it allows
photos to be taken con-
tinuously at intervals of just
a few seconds.
These picture series are
limited exclusively by the
capacity of the memory card
used.
This is why there should be
sufficient storage space
available for your picture
series. Alternatively, you may
reduce the image size
(number of pixels) and/or
image quality (compression).
Focusing is another point in
continuous photography
that deserves your attention.
The camera will focus the
first image of a series.
Should your subject leave
the area of sharp focus, you
might have to interrupt the
series to resume focusing.
In the Multishot 16 mode,
16 pictures will be taken at
intervals of approx. two
seconds. However, these will
all be combined in one
frame (multishot).
Flash is not available in this
mode.
Using the different
shooting modes
Be sure to experiment with
this attractive feature. If your
subject moves during the
series or if you vary the
framing slightly, the result
will be particularly fasci-
nating.
In the Self-timer mode, the
shutter will be released 10
seconds after depression of
the shutter release. The red
lamp on the camera front
will blink ever more rapidly,
reflecting the countdown. In
addition, a beep will be
heard. This can be disabled
via the Set menu and the
mode dial under Beep.
When pressing the shutter
release, be sure not to stand
in front of the camera.
Instead, look through the
viewfinder. Otherwise, the
camera might focus on your
chest or some distance in
front of the actual subject.
If your main subject is
off-center, use focus lock
with the shutter release
pressed halfway. See
Autofocus / Focusing.
