clearly. Portrait subjects exhibit smooth, natural-looking skin tones.

Use this mode for dynamic action shots that freeze the action

mode is set to R Normal (3264). This rate is maintained for
up to 4 pictures.
• The maximum frame rate with continuous shooting may
vary depending upon the current image mode setting and
the memory card used.
