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].

4.Half-press and hold the shutter button to start pre-recording of images.
A preset number of images are pre-recorded. The pre-recorded images are 
continually updated until you full-press the shutter button.

way down, all of the pre-recorded images currently in the buffer will be deleted.
• The camera will not emit shutter sounds as it pre-records images.
5.Press the shutter button the rest of the way down.
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. Control panel operations, recording, 
and precautions are the same as those that apply to High Speed CS (page 51).

• Prerecord CS (pre-recording of images before the shutter button is full-pressed) is 
not performed if you full-press the shutter button without half-pressing first.
