Shooting Mode Controls used Shooting mode determines how the camera takes photographs: one at a time, in a continuous sequence, with a timed shutter-release delay, or with a remote control. Mode Description Single frame (default) Camera takes one photograph each time shutter-release button is pressed. Camera records photographs at up to about 2.5 frames per second while shutter-release button is pressed (note that photographs taken at an ISO sen- Continuous sitivity of HI 1 are automatically processed to reduce noise, increasing record- (burst mode) ing time by about 1 second per frame). Only one shot will be taken if flash fires; select Auto (flash off ) mode ( 18) or turn flash off ( 35) for burst photography. 10s Self-timer Use for self-portraits or to reduce blurring caused by camera shake ( 33). 2s Delayed remote Optional ML-L3 remote control required. Use for self-portraits ( 33). Quick-response Optional ML-L3 remote control required.

The Memory Buffer The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage, allowing shooting to continue while photographs are being saved to the memory card. When the buffer is full, the shutter is disabled until enough data have been transferred to the memory card to make room for another photograph. In continuous mode, shooting will continue to a maximum of 100 shots, although the frame rate will drop once the buffer has filled. See the Appendix for information on the number of photographs that can be stored in the memory buffer. The approximate number of images that can be stored in the memory buffer at current settings is shown in the exposure-count display in the viewfinder while the shutter-release button is pressed. 32 Reference: More on Photography (All Modes)/Shooting Mode
