Power Source and Frame Rate
The maximum frame advance rate varies with the power source
and image area.
The figures below are the average maximum
frame rates available with continuous-servo AF, manual or
shutter-priority auto exposure, a shutter speed of
1
/
250 s or faster,
settings other than Custom Setting d2 at default values, and
memory remaining in the memory buffer.
The stated rates may not be available under some conditions.
Frame rate drops at slow shutter speeds or very small apertures
(high f-numbers) or when vibration reduction (available with VR
lenses) or auto ISO sensitivity control is on (0 111) or the battery
is low.
In M mode, frame rate is fixed at about 3 fps.
