Focusing in burst mode
Focusing varies depending on focus settings and the setting of [Focus/Release Priority] in the
[Custom] ([Focus / Release Shutter]) menu.

Focus is fixed in the first picture when dark subjects are recorded.
*
3 The camera predicts the focus within a possible range by giving higher priority to the burst speed.
*
4 Since the camera records a burst of pictures while it adjusts the focus, the burst speed may be
slower.
●
The burst speed may become slower depending on the following settings:
[Sensitivity], [Picture Size], [Quality], focus mode, [Focus/Release Priority]
●
When the burst speed is set to [H] (when focus mode is [AFS] or [MF]), the exposure is fixed at
the settings used for the first picture for the subsequent picture as well. In other cases, the camera
adjusts the exposure for each frame.
●
It may take a while to store stills that were taken using the burst function. If you continue
to record while storing, the number of burst pictures that can be taken will be reduced. A
high-speed card is recommended when recording using the burst function.
●
This function is not available in the following cases:
• [Glistening Water], [Glittering Illuminations], [Handheld Night Shot], [Soft Image of a Flower]
(Scene Guide Mode)
• [Rough Monochrome], [Silky Monochrome], [Miniature Effect], [Soft Focus], [Star Filter],
[Sunshine] (Creative Control Mode)
• When recording using the flash
• When [Multi Exp.] is set
