D Cautions: Burst Photography
• Depending on shooting conditions and memory card performance, the
memory card access lamp may light for anywhere from a few tens of
seconds to around a minute. Do not remove the memory card while the
memory card access lamp is lit. Not only could any unrecorded pictures be
lost, but the camera or memory card could be damaged.
• At shutter speeds slower than 1 /
250
s, the shooting display does not update
in real time during burst photography. To track your subject during
shooting, choose shutter speeds faster than
1 /
250
s.
• If the camera is switched off while the memory card access lamp is lit, it will
not power off until all pictures in the buffer have been recorded.
• If the battery is exhausted while pictures remain in the buffer, the shutter
release will be disabled and the pictures transferred to the memory card.
• Bursts shot at a frame rate of 20 fps in continuous high-speed mode will be
limited to a maximum of about 3 seconds if:
- a RAW + JPEG option is selected for image quality, or
- [
JPEG Slot 1 - JPEG Slot 2 ] is selected for [ Role played by card in Slot 2 ]
in the photo shooting menu.
A The Memory Buffer
• While the shutter-release button is pressed
halfway, the frame-count display will show the
number of pictures that can be stored in the
memory buffer.
• When the buffer is full, the display will show
r000 and the frame rate will drop.
• The number shown is approximate. The actual
number of photos that can be stored in the memory buffer varies with
camera settings and shooting conditions.
