D BSS (Best Shot Selector)
The “best shot selector” is recommended when shooting with the flash off or the
camera zoomed in, or in other situations in which inadvertent motion can result in
blurred pictures.
When BSS is on, the camera takes up to 10 pictures while the shutter-release button
is held down. The sharpest picture in the series is automatically selected and saved.

Each time the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down,
the camera takes 16 shots at a rate of about 7.5 frames per
second (fps), then arranges them in a single picture. Image mode

when using auto mode, and
locked at

Normal (2048)
when using high sensitivity mode.
Digital zoom cannot be applied.
B Note on Continuous Shooting
• The maximum frame rate with continuous shooting may vary, depending upon the current image
mode setting and the memory card used.
• Distortion control (A 85) cannot be used at the same time as Continuous, BSS, or Multi-shot
16 (A86).
B Note on BSS
BSS may not produce the desired results if the subject moves or the composition changes while the
shutter-release button is pressed all the way down.
B Note on Multi-shot 16
If bright objects such as the sun or electric lights are captured, vertical streaks of light may appear in the
recorded images. We recommend that you avoid capturing bright objects during continuous shooting.
