∫ Focusing in Burst Mode
The focus changes depending on the setting for [FOCUS PRIORITY] (P128) in the
[CUSTOM MENU] menu and the focus mode setting.

¢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 P161 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 [L],
they are adjusted each time you take a picture.
• If you are following a moving subject while taking pictures in a place (landscape) indoors,
outdoors etc. where there is a large difference between the light and shade, 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.
• The Auto Review function is activated regardless of the Auto Review setting. (Will not enlarge/
hold) You cannot set the Auto Review function in the [SETUP] menu.
• When the flash is activated, you can take only 1 picture.
• White Balance Bracket (P85) will record 3 pictures at 1 recording, so it will take longer to
be able to take next picture.
• Maximum of 3 films will be recorded depending on the Multi Film Bracket setting during
the Multi Film Bracket recording (P89).
• The Burst Mode is disabled during recording of the motion pictures.
