Jun 24, 2019 14:33 | #1 I have seen a couple of references to changing the fps rate on 7D cameras in some threads. I usually have shot sports in high speed continuous but for T&F with the exception of the jumps and especially for for cross country, 10 fps is not really needed but 3 fps is a bit too slow. Can the rate be changed? Thanks.

Thank you for the information. I have only really tried the silent single shooting mode as well

Thanks for the information. I will have to get my manual out and dig through it again. Since it appears that you can adjust either one, maybe will leave the high speed continuous rate the same and just increase the low speed continuous rate.

I made a comment based on my use of the camera which excludes the use of that customization. My bad. Nothing to get bent out of shape about, chappy.

You also have silent which defaults to 4 as someone already mentioned. >>> Pictures? What pictures? <<<<

Print it double sided on some decent paper and carry it with you. What you are after is under "Drive Mode", 2nd page, lower left corner.Better yet, put the PDF into the storage of your smartphone and avoid carrying a book all the time. You need to give me OK to edit your image and repost! Keep POTN alive and well with member support https://photography-on-the.net/forum/donate.php
