Continuous Release Mode

Continuous release mode can not be used with the built-in flash; lower
the flash or turn the flash off (

0 112–116) when shooting in continuous

release mode.

A

Buffer Size

The approximate number of images that can be
stored in the memory buffer at current settings is
shown in the monitor exposure-count display
while the shutter-release button is pressed
halfway (up to 26 large, normal-quality JPEG
images or 9 large, RAW+JPEG fine images can be
stored in the buffer, although the number of
pictures that can be taken before the frame rate drops varies with
shooting conditions and memory card performance). The illustration
shows the display when space remains in the buffer for about 17
pictures.

A

The Memory Buffer

The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage,
allowing shooting to continue while photographs are being saved to the
memory card. Up to 100 photographs can be taken in succession.

While photographs are being recorded to the memory card, the AF
lamp/memory-card access lamp will light (

0 23). Depending on

shooting conditions and memory card performance, recording may take
from a few seconds to a few minutes. Do not remove the memory card or
remove or disconnect the power source until the access lamp has gone out.

If the camera is switched off while data remain in the buffer, the power
will not turn off until all images in the buffer have been recorded. If the
battery is exhausted while images remain in the buffer, the shutter
release will be disabled and the images transferred to the memory card.

A

The Shooting Menu

The release mode can also be selected using the
Release mode option in the shooting menu
(

0 176).
