Nikon P900 Continuous Burst Shot Problem
Jun 21, 2021 13:33:57 #
Goal is how to select 7fps burst mode for bird/wildlife pictures... and have it saved in Program mode.
Per Alexander White's Book page 42 "Bird Watching" Scene Mode:
Scene Mode: [Menu, Scene, Bird-watching, Ok or right button, Single or Continuous) per fig 3-58 for a continuous burst of about 7 shots at 7 fps. When you press Ok or right button, there is no choice of Single or continuous, Instead the choices are: [Normal(180 degrees) or Wide(360)] and not Single or Continuous!
Program Mode: Continuous, [Single, Continuous H, Continuous L, Preshooting cache, Continuous H:120fps, Continuous H:60fps]
Firmware 1.5
What am I missing??

It's hard to tell from the description attached (a snip from your Nikon user manual), but it sounds like the continuous/single is the first thing you would see upon selecting bird watching in the scene mode. In other words, you don't click OK 'til you pick one of those.

you need to use the "Multi selector dial", the dial surrounding the OK button, to move the highlighter down to "Bird Watching," then hit the OK button; after that you can set the camera for burst. White's book doesn't tell you that.
