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.

The camera predicts the focus within a possible range by giving higher priority to the burst speed.

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 still pictures 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.
●
We recommend using the shutter remote control (DMW-RS2: optional) when you want to keep the
shutter button pressed fully while taking picture in Burst Mode.
●
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
