L

1–9 frames per second.

up to 9 frames per second (9–11 fps when DX (24×16) is
selected for Image area; see page 78).
*
J
Quiet
shutter-
release
As for single-frame except that noise is reduced by
disabling beeps and minimizing sound produced when
mirror drops back into place. Beep does not sound when
camera focuses regardless of setting selected for Custom
Setting d1 (Beep; 0 306) and mirror does not drop back
into place until shutter-release button is returned to
halfway position after shooting, allowing you to delay
noise made by mirror. Mirror is quieter than in single-frame
mode.
E
Self-timer
Use self-timer for self-portraits or to reduce blurring caused
by camera shake (0 106).
MUP
Mirror up
Choose this mode to minimize camera shake in telephoto
or close-up photography or in other situations in which the
slightest camera movement can result in blurred
photographs (0 108).
* Average frame rate with continuous-servo AF, manual or shutter-priority
auto exposure, a shutter speed of
1
/250 s or faster, other settings at default
values, and memory remaining in memory buffer.
Frame rate can be chosen
using Custom Setting d2 (Shooting speed, 0 307).
