Nikon D50 Manuel D’Utilisation

Shooting mode determines how the camera takes pho to graphs: one at a 
time or continuously while the shutter-release button is held down.

Single frame
(default)

Camera takes one photograph each time shutter-release button 
is pressed.

Continuous
(burst mode)

Camera records photographs at rate of up to about 2.5 frames 
per second while shutter-release button is pressed.

To choose a shooting mode, press the 

 button 

and rotate the command dial until the desired 
mode is displayed in the control panel.

The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for tem po rary storage, allowing 
shooting to continue while photographs are being saved to the memory card.  
When the buff er is full, the shut ter is disabled until enough data have been trans-
 ferred to the mem o ry card to make room for another photograph.  In con tin u ous 
mode, shooting will con tin ue as long as the shutter-release button is held down, 
al though the frame rate will drop once the buffer has fi lled.

The number of im 

ag es that can be stored in the 

memory buffer at current set 

tings is shown in the 

ex po sure-count dis plays in the viewfi nder and con trol 
pan el while the shutter-release button is pressed.
