K 2-10 Drive Mode (j/Y/i)
  Reducing Shutter Lag  (Pro Capture Photography)
Capture starts when the shutter button is pressed halfway; the moment the button 
is pressed the rest of the way down, the camera will start saving the last n captured 
pictures to the memory card, where n is a number selected before shooting begins. 
If the button is held all the way down, shooting will continue until the selected 
number of pictures is recorded. Use this option to capture moments you might 
otherwise miss due to your subject’s reactions or shutter lag. Choose from [Pro 
Capture Low] and [Pro Capture High].
Pro Capture Low (q)
The camera shoots at up to 18 fps. A maximum of 35 frames can be captured 
before the shutter button is pressed all the way down. If [C-AF], [C-AF
b], 
[C-AF+TR], or [C-AF+TRb] is selected for [K AF Mode] (P. 115), the camera 
will focus before each shot. Choose this option if you anticipate that the distance to 
the subject will change during shooting.
Pro Capture High (
p)
The camera shoots at up to 60 fps. A maximum of 35 frames can be captured 
before the shutter button is pressed all the way down. The camera will use [S-AF] 
when [C-AF] or [C-AF+TR] is selected for [K AF Mode] (P. 115) and [S-AF
b] 
when [C-AFb] or [C-AF+TRb] is selected. Choose this option if the distance to 
the subject is unlikely to change very much during shooting.
•  Aperture is restricted to values between maximum aperture and f/8.0 while q (Pro Capture 
Low) mode is in effect.

halfway once more.

subject moves markedly during shooting.

compensation, the display frame rate may drop below that selected for [Frame Rate]
