Consecutive Shooting
• When the focus mode lever is set to l (single), the focus is locked in the
first frame position and used for subsequent continuous frames.
• When the focus mode lever is set to k (continuous), the focus is adjusted
for each shot. However, note that the shutter will release even if the focusing
is not complete.
• The shutter cannot be released until charging is complete when using the
built-in flash. Use a custom function to enable shutter release before the built-
in flash is ready. See page 115 for setting Custom Functions.
