Frame Advance Rate
The frame rates for continuous low-speed and continuous high-speed modes can also be selected
using Custom Setting d1 [Continuous shooting speed].
The actual frame rate when a frame advance rate of 8 fps is selected in continuous low-speed mode
is 7.5 fps.
The values given above for frame advance rate assume a focus mode of AF‑C, shooting mode M, a
shutter speed of ¹⁄₂₅₀ s or faster, and default values for all other settings. Frame advance rates may
slow:
- during flash photography,
- in silent mode,
- when flicker is detected with [ON] selected for [Photo flicker reduction] in the photo shooting
menu,
- if aperture is stopped down to a very high f-number, or
- at slow shutter speeds.
When [ON] is selected for [Photo flicker reduction] in the photo shooting menu (
shooting display will briefly go dark during burst photography.

Cautions: Burst Photography
Depending on shooting conditions and memory card performance, the memory card access lamp
may light for anywhere from a few tens of seconds to around a minute. Do not remove the memory
card while the memory card access lamp is lit. Not only could any unrecorded pictures be lost, but
the camera or memory card could be damaged.
At shutter speeds slower than ¹⁄₂₅₀ s, the shooting display does not update in real time during burst
photography. To track your subject during shooting, choose shutter speeds faster than ¹⁄₂₅₀ s.
If the camera is switched off while the memory card access lamp is lit, it will not power off until all
pictures in the buffer have been recorded.
If the battery is exhausted while pictures remain in the buffer, the shutter release will be disabled
and the pictures transferred to the memory card.
