Notes on using the Continuous shooting modes
h Shooting continues as long as you hold down the shutter button. In auto bracketing mode however,
just press the shutter button once to shoot 3 frames.
h If there is insufficient space on the xD-Picture Card, as many frames are shot as can be recorded on
the available space. When auto bracketing, if there is insufficient space on the xD-Picture Card to
record 3 frames, no pictures are taken.
h The focus is determined in the first frame and cannot be changed in mid-sequence.
h The exposure is determined in the first frame, but in Long-period continuous shooting the exposure is
adjusted for the scene being shot.
h The speed of continuous shooting varies depending on the shutter speed.
h The speed of continuous shooting does not change with the quality setting.
h The flash cannot be used as the flash mode is set to Suppressed flash.
h For continuous shooting, final 4-frame continuous shooting and pictures taken using auto bracketing,
the results are always displayed after you shoot. To choose whether or not to record the images, set
"IMAGE DISP." in "SET-UP" to "PREVIEW" (➡P.86). Note that pictures taken using Long-period
continuous shooting are recorded without displaying the results.
