(Flash Off). • Shooting with this BEST SHOT scene makes the shooting range narrower than normal. • The Self-timer cannot be used with this BEST SHOT scene. • Compose the image so the entire subject and its background are within the boundary. Recording may not be performed correctly if there is little difference between the subject and the part of the background enclosed by the boundary. Also, Move Out CS may not record correctly if the subject is not in the center of the boundary. • Move In CS and Move Out CS do not operate correctly if you press the shutter button all the way down.

86Using BEST SHOT The High Speed CS capabilities provide you with a variety of BEST SHOT options to suite exactly the type of image you are trying to record. Images continue to be shot as long as you keep the shutter button depressed, with the shooting speed optimized according to the BEST SHOT scene you are using. Prerecord CS (page 51) pre-records images when you half-press the shutter button. Then when you press the shutter button the rest of the way down, the camera stores what is currently in the buffer and starts real-time continuous shutter shooting of new images. Shooting continues until you release the shutter button or until a total of up to 30 images (buffer images plus new images) are shot. Some of the 30 images are of action that occurred before you full-pressed the shutter button and some are after. This helps to ensure you capture exactly the moment you want, even if your timing is slightly off. *You can record up to 30 images (pre-recorded buffer images plus real-time images) for each Prerecord CS operation. 1.In the REC mode, set the mode dial to b. 2.Press [SET]. 3.Select the BEST SHOT scene you want to use and then press [SET].

This will save the pre-recorded images and start shooting new images in real- time. Images continue to be shot as long as you keep the shutter button depressed. 6.Shooting will stop when you release the shutter button or after the maximum number of shots is reached. 7.Save the CS images (page 56). NOTE • CS settings (“High Speed CS”, “Normal Speed CS”, “F CS”) are disabled and will always be recorded as High Speed CS shots.
