Continuous shot
Metering
You can select the type of shooting and the number of continuous shots.
[SINGLE]
: Take one picture only
[CONTINUOUS] : Images will be taken
continuously until the shutter
button is released.
The shooting capacity depends
on the memory.
[HIGH SPEED]
: This takes 3 shots continuously
(about 2.5 shots per second) when the shutter is pressed
down and held.
[M. CAPTURE]
: This takes 7 shots per second, when the shutter is pressed
and held down. After completing the continuous shooting,
images are saved and the images play back on the Rear
LCD. The maximum number of shots is 20 and the image
size is fixed as 1024x768.
[AEB]
: Take three pictures in a series using different exposures :
standard exposure (0.0EV), Short exposure (-1/2EV) and
over exposure (+1/2EV).
High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time, which
increases stand-by time.
If the [CONTINUOUS], [HIGH SPEED], [M. CAPTURE] or [AEB] sub menu
is selected, the flash is switched off automatically.
It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to save each
image file is longer and blurring caused by camera shake may occur.
When the [M. CAPTURE] menu is selected, you only can select ISO AUTO,
400, 800, 1600, 3200.
The ACB function is not available when the [HIGH SPEED], [M.CAPTURE]
or [AEB] options are enabled.
If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the
metering method to take brighter pictures.
[MULTI]
: Exposure will be calculated based on
an average of the available light in the
image area. However, the calculation
will be biased towards the centre of
the image area.
This is suitable for general use.
[SPOT]
: Only the rectangular area in the centre
of the LCD monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable when
you want the subject in the centre correctly exposed, regardless
of the back lighting.
[CENTER] : Exposure will be calculated based on an average of the available
