O: For those scene modes with O, use of a tripod is recommended. Turn vibration reduction

(

A 128) off when using a tripod.

longer to record.

• While the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera

focuses continuously until focus is acquired and locked.

shoots at a rate of about 1.1 frames per second (fps) when
image quality is set to Normal and image size is set to F
(4,000

×

3,000). This rate is maintained for up to 5 pictures.

Focus, exposure compensation, and white balance are fixed at values determined with the
first shot in each series.

• The maximum frame rate with continuous shooting may vary depending upon the

current image mode setting and the memory card used.
