Notes on High-Speed Continuous Shooting
• Even if you choose D
2592×1944 or larger for the Image size setting while Continuous is
selected as the sport continuous shooting type, the
Image size setting will change to
C 2048×1536 once you switch to Continuous H, Continuous M, or Continuous L.
• As the ISO sensitivity is fixed at 640 and over during high-speed continuous shooting (H, M, L),
proper exposure may not be obtained in clear weather (pictures may be overexposed).
• If bright objects such as the sun or electric lights are captured during high-speed continuous
shooting, vertical streaks of light may appear in the recorded images.
We recommend that you avoid capturing bright objects during high-speed continuous shooting.
