Using continuous shooting mode
The P-400R has the single-frame shooting function as well as the following shooting
functions.
 Best-shot selector function
Up to ten images are captured while pressing the capture switch, and only the file
with the maximum file size is saved. Generally, the fine image without being
blurred or out of focus has a large data amount. This function is effective only
when JPG is specified for the image mode.
 Self timer function
The shutter is released 2 seconds after the capture switch is pressed. When you
press the capture switch, a countdown display is shown on the LCD monitor, and
when it shows 0 sec., image capturing is performed.

 Interval shooting function
Single-frame shooting is performed continuously with a specified interval for a
specified number of shots. This is useful to see how the object changes with time.
To switch continuous shooting mode
For switching continuous shooting mode, see "5.10 Using Continuous Shooting
Mode".
Using the release switch
Even when the P-400R has been attached to a tripod, vibration might occur when the
capture switch is pressed. In such a case, using the optional P-RELS Release is
recommended.
The P-RELS Release is connected to the P-400R video output/release switch
connecting terminal. After the release switch is connected, enable operation with the
switch as described in "7.4 Selecting the Shutter Release Method".
When the P-RELS Release is connected while one of NTSC and PAL is set for the
video output signal of the P-400R, the LCD monitor display is turned off. When using
the P-RELS Release, set the video output signal to off. (For the setting procedure,
see "7.3 Selecting the Video Output Signal Format".)
* The best-shot selector and timer functions are also useful for reducing vibration.
