Snapshot Tutorial
With High Speed CS, you can configure the camera to shoot at a speed of 3, 5, 10, 15, or
30 images per second, as long as you keep the shutter button and there is memory
available to store the images. With Prerecord CS, 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
real-time continuous shutter recording of new images. Real-time recording continues until
you release the shutter button or until a total of up to 30 images (buffer images plus new
images) are recorded. You can configure Prerecord CS to specify how many of the 30
images are recorded in the buffer and how many are recorded after you fully press the
shutter button. Use Prerecord CS when you want to make sure you do not miss fast-moving
action.
• You can specify 5, 10, 20, or 30 as the maximum number of shots for each
continuous shutter operation.
• You can specify anywhere from one second up to 30 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 3 to 30 fps.
