42 RECORDING - ADVANCED OPERATION
The continuous-advance drive mode allows a series of images to be captured
while holding down the shutter-release button. The number of images that can
be captured at one time and the rate of capture depend on the image-quality
setting. The maximum rate of capture is 1.2 fps. Continuous-advance drive
mode is set in the main recording menu (p. 36).
Compose the picture as described in the basic recording
operation section (p. 25). Press the shutter-release button
partway down to lock the exposure and focus for the
series (1). Press and hold the shutter-release button all
the way down (2) to begin taking pictures.
When the shutter-release button is pressed and held, the
camera will begin recording images until the maximum
number has been taken or the shutter button is released.
The built-in flash can be used, but the rate of capture is
reduced because the flash must recharge between
frames. Date imprinting (p. 56) also reduces the rate of
capture.
The maximum number of images that can be captured
with different image quality is as follows:
1600 X 1200 Fine: 5
1600 X 1200 Standard: 7
1280 X 960 Standard: 12
640 X 480 Standard: 22
