5 Nikon D60 Continuous Shooting Mode Tips
Ever tried shooting continuous mode in your nikon D60 and found that it stops after 4 shots? Here is what you need to do to make continuous shooting fun again with your Nikon D60!
D60 Continuous Shooting Tip #1
“Have a High Shutter Speed”
Doing so will ensure your shutter is fast enough for the D60 to hit its highest frame rate of 3 fps (or frames per second)
D60 Continuous Shooting Tip #2
“Turn off the Flash“
Activating flash itself will break the continuous shooting because the flash in itself takes 2-3 seconds to recharge after every shot.
D60 Continuous Shooting Tip #3
“Get a High Speed SDHC card“
The faster the write rate of your card, the faster the photo can be cleared from the D60’s buffer, ensuring that your shooting would not be stopped by the D60 writing to a slow memory card.
D60 Continuous Shooting Tip #4
“Shoot at JPEG“
Shoot at JPEG unless you require RAW files for post processing or some other reasons, as JPEGs are much smaller than RAW and allows the D60 to write to the memory card much faster. If you still require RAW files and performance is not quite as you expected, try upgrading your memory card to a class 6 SDHC.
D60 Continuous Shooting Tip #5
“Turn off D-Lighting“
D-Lighting involves extra processing on your shots by the D60 and this processing is not fast at all, and with the D-Lighting on your D60 turn on, it takes a significantly longer amount of time to process each shot, thus breaking the flow of the continuous shooting mode.
