NOTE
The back lamp flashes red while the flash is charging. You will not be able to
perform further Flash CS shooting until charging is complete, which is indicated
when the back lamp stops flashing and goes out.
When shooting with Flash CS, there may be times when a message appears telling
you to wait, because you have reached the limit of the flash. This is to protect the
flash from damage. You will be able to resume using flash after the message
disappears.
In this mode, half-pressing the shutter button starts continual pre-recording of images
to a temporary buffer. Then when you press the shutter button the rest of the way
down, the camera stores what is currently in the buffer and starts continuous shutter
recording of new images. Recording continues until you release the shutter button or
until a total of up to 40 images (buffer images plus new images) are recorded
(Prerecord (Still image)). You can configure this mode to specify how many of the 40
images are recorded in the buffer and how many are recorded after you fully press
the shutter button. You can use this mode when you want to make sure you do not
miss fast-moving action.
You can specify anywhere from one second up to 40 seconds as the continuous
shutter shooting time, which is the amount of time of the pre-record buffer plus the
amount of time that continuous shutter recording is performed after the shutter
button is pressed all the way. The maximum shooting time depends on the
selected CS speed. You can select a CS speed in the range of 1 to 40 fps.
You can configure the mode so up to 39 images are pre-recorded to the buffer until
you fully press the shutter button.
The minimum interval for images pre-recorded in the buffer is 0.5 seconds and the
minimum number of pre-recorded images is one.
