With the Burst feature, you can take a series of separate, still pictures in quick succession. The number of pictures you get in the series depends on your Picture Quality setting. When you shoot with the Burst feature, the built-in flash is turned off. However, an external flash is always active when connected.
In the lowest Picture Quality setting, 0.8 MP (1080 x 720), you can take a maximum of 16 pictures in sequence. With other settings, the maximum is 4 pictures.
Note This setting is ideal for taking pictures of sporting events, or for recording moving objects.
To shoot in Burst mode:
-
Select a capture mode on the Mode Dial.
-
Press the
button until the
icon appears in the Status Display.
-
Press the Shutter button half-way to lock the focus and exposure for all of the pictures in the sequence.
-
Press and hold the Shutter button all the way down to take the pictures. The camera beeps, then starts taking pictures until you release the Shutter button, or until the Burst sequence is complete.
