• While the shutter-release button is held all the way down, images are captured
continuously.
• The camera can capture about 5 images continuously at a rate of about 5 fps.
• The frame rate for continuous shooting may become slow depending on the current
image quality setting, image size setting, the memory card used, or shooting
conditions.
• Focus, exposure, and hue for the second and subsequent images are fixed at the values
determined with the first image.
y M f Party/indoor
• To avoid the effects of camera shake, hold the camera steady. Set Vibration reduction
(A167) to Off in the setup menu when using a tripod to stabilize the camera during
shooting.
y M k Close-up
On the screen displayed when k Close-up is selected, select Noise reduction burst or
Single shot.
• Noise reduction burst: This enables you to shoot a sharp image with a minimum of
noise.
- Press the shutter-release button all the way to capture a series of images which are
combined into a single image and saved.
- Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera still until a still
image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the screen
switches to the shooting screen.
- If the subject moves or there is a significant camera shake during continuous
shooting, the image may be distorted, overlapped, or blurred.
- The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image is
narrower than that seen on the shooting screen.
- Continuous shooting may not be possible in certain shooting conditions.
• Single shot: Saves images with emphasized outlines and contrast.
- One image is captured when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way.
• The focus mode (A66) setting is changed to D (macro close-up) and the camera
automatically zooms to the closest position at which it can focus.
• You can move the focus area. Press the k button, use the multi selector HIJK or
rotate it to move the focus area, and press the k button to apply the setting.
