With shutter speeds of 1.3 seconds or slower, there will

be a delay before you can shoot again, as images are

processed to remove noise.

should set [IS Mode] to [Off] (

Maximum shutter speed with the flash is 1/2000 second. If

you specify a faster speed, the camera will automatically

reset the speed to 1/2000 second before shooting.

shutter button halfway indicates that the settings deviate

from standard exposure. Adjust the shutter speed until
