Changing the setting (exposure range)
This mode allows you to release the shutter up to
40 times (at intervals as short as 0.3 seconds) and
record the last 4 frames. If you take your finger off
the shutter button before 40 shots have been
taken, the camera records the final 4 frames shot
before you released the shutter button.
If there is insufficient space on the xD-Picture
Card, the camera records as many of the shots
taken just before the shutter button was released
as will fit on the xD-Picture Card.

Focusing on a moving subject
◆
If you press the shutter button down halfway to focus on the subject at the starting point A, the subject
may no longer be in focus when it reaches point B where you want to take the shot.
In such situations, focus on point B beforehand and then lock the focus so that it does not shift.
This feature is also useful for photographing fast-moving subjects that are difficult to focus on.

Quality and flash
◆
When a Continuous shooting mode is selected, the flash mode is forcibly set to “v” Suppressed flash.
In a Long-period continuous shooting with 1600 × 1200 pixels mode, the quality is also forcibly set to
“
2”.
However, when the mode is changed back to normal photography, the flash setting specified before
continuous shooting was selected is restored. Likewise, when a Long-period continuous shooting with
1600 × 1200 pixels mode has been used, the quality setting is restored to its previous value.
