Not sure what has happened but on both CL and CH settings the camera will only take 2 consecutive shots on each press of the shutter. I've had a search through the menus but can't see anything obviously wrong.

Anyone have any ideas?

Cheers

Thanks Scott, I shall have a check on that when I get home.

Check the front of the body for the C S M flick lever and that you havn't knocked it into single mode

I believe thats the focus only - nothing on the number of shots..? I could be wrong.




OP : did you manage to sort it ?
 
Thanks for the advice chaps. Need to wait till I get home tonight to see if it can be sorted.

I think on my d300 that the bracketting only affected the exposures.. still allowed multi shot at speed.

But yeah post up later on if you're still getting problems. Might be able to spot something...

PS: Good luck! :)

I'm pretty certain on my D300 that having it in bracketing mode will limit the number of shots per shutter release. At least that's what I recall as the problem early on when I got mine and it suddenly stopped shooting bursts.

Yep, if you have bracketting selecting the camera will stop after one cycle of the bracket shots.

I think the same applies if you have multiple exposures set too (but could be wrong as I've never tried it).
 
Thanks guys I had done the same as the fella on dp review, hit the Fn button and the command dial and turned on bracketing.

Cheers
