I think that's the correct term (multi-frame). It's where the camera takes like 20 shots at a given moment. I just got a cell phone that does that and wanted to know if any digital camera's had this option. Most of the time you see this in the Skateboarding magazines, with like 10-15 frames.
 
My camera has a "burst mode", but it only takes 4 pics at a time.

And that's a 7 line sig you have there. The max is 6.
 
just look for a "drive" option or a "burst" option. They normally appear in the mid to high price range cameras

Thanks, I just changed it.
 
I've got an Olympus camera, and it's in the Drive menu. It can take about seven shots, three per second, at the highest compressed quality.

What you're looking at is the need to be able to store what's currently in frame, and then write it to the memory card as quickly as possible. The speed of this depends upon the type of card you're using. My camera uses xD cards, which are supposedly amongst the quickest.
 
Are there camera's that go higher than 7 shots. I'm looking more in the range of 20-30.
 
I couldn't say for certain, but I would doubt it in the digital field. If you want to go higher, you would need to use film - a film SLR can burn a whole 36-shot roll in 12 seconds or less.

Hey, don't be calling me for tech support :lol:
 
Are you an Olympus employee? Cool! For how long should my C-750UZ remember its settings with the batteries removed?
