Shooting pictures sequentially (Sequential shooting)
This function allows you to take a rapid succession of still pictures by pressing
and holding the shutter button (over 8 pictures at 1.5 frames per second in
HQ mode). As you can choose the best picture from a series of sequential
shots, you are recommended to use this mode when taking a moving subject.
You can also erase the unwanted shots afterwards. “Single-frame erase”

During sequential shooting, the flash is disabled.
Since the shutter speed is set to 1/30 sec. max., exposure is
decreased when shooting a dark subject to prevent camera shake.
The number of pictures that can be shot in succession and the
sequential shooting speed vary depending on the subject, the record
mode, whether the pictures are stored on the card or in the internal
memory, and the amount of space available on the card or in the
internal memory.
It takes longer than usual to store pictures after sequential shooting.
