the flash is not activated.
•
The Burst Mode speed may become slower depending on the following settings.
–

¢1 When subject is dark, the focus is fixed on the first picture.
¢2 The burst speed may become slower because the camera is continuously focusing on the
subject.
¢3 Burst speed takes priority, and focus is estimated within possible range.
Note
•
We recommend using the remote shutter (DMW-RSL1; optional) when you want to keep the
shutter button pressed fully while taking pictures in Burst Mode. Refer to P179 for information
about the remote shutter.
•
When the burst speed is set to [H], the exposure and White Balance are fixed at the settings
used for the first picture for the subsequent pictures as well. When the burst speed is set to [M]
or [L], they are adjusted each time you take a picture.
• If you are following a moving subject while taking pictures in a place indoors, outdoors etc.
where there is a large difference between the light and shade (landscape), it may take time until
the exposure is stable. If burst is used at this time, the exposure may not become optimal.
•
Since the shutter speed becomes slower in dark places, the burst speed (pictures/second) may
become slower.
•
When set to [H], the Auto Review function is activated regardless of the Auto Review setting.
(Will not hold) You cannot set the Auto Review function in the [SETUP] menu.
When set to [M] or [L], Live View is displayed between burst frames.
•
When the flash is activated, you can take only 1 picture.
•
White Balance Bracket (P89) will record 3 pictures at 1 recording, so it will take longer to
be able to take the next picture.
•
Maximum of 3 films will be recorded depending on the Multi Film Bracket setting during
the Multi Film Bracket recording (P93).
•
The Burst Mode is disabled during recording of motion pictures.
