Continuous High Speed (CH) Mode
This high-speed mode is designed for when you want to go
fast always! The camera will attempt to capture 6 frames per
second every time you hold down the Shutter-release button.
The manual states that the default frame rate without the
MB-D10 battery pack mounted is up to 6 FPS, and it’s 8 FPS
when you do have the battery pack on your camera. So if
you’re a high FPS junkie, buy the battery pack!
Requirements for Fast Frame Rates
All of the settings for fast frame rates (high FPS) are based
on the assumption that you are shooting with at least a
1/250s shutter speed, have a fully charged battery, and
have some buffer space left in your camera’s memory.
Quiet (Q) Mode (D300S only)
In the Release mode dial position previously occupied by the
LV mode on the D300, Nikon added a new Q mode in the
D300S. Since LV mode is activated by the Lv button on the
D300S, there was no more need for the LV Release mode
setting. Nikon took advantage of the gap left on the Release
mode dial and gave D300S users a new Q mode.
Q mode, or quiet mode, is designed to make as little noise as
possible when firing the camera’s shutter. Instead of raising
the reflex mirror, taking the picture, then lowering the mirror
in one smooth step, the D300S ties the raising and lowering of
the mirror to the position of the Shutter-release button.
