can the camera take rapid shoots

If it can, I have not found that setting yet. I recommend the Cannon Rebel Xti. I use it at work and it is amazing. I set it on action mode and you can snap away, just hold the button! And it has settings to change the aperture for different lighting.

I don't know. I bought the camera as a birthday gift for my boyfriend. All he said was everything about it was amazing.

Yes. The lens is very fast, f 1.4 and with higher iso and manual control to set shutter speed and aperture it can perform like a digitalSLR camera. Low light, nonflash action always a challenge.

At least 6 frames per second it's real fast if you want action shots this is the camera.

Camera has a very fast electronic shutter and can take up to 40 frames/second. I have used the 10 frame per second mode for some outdoor shots that came out fine - just a lot of pictures to go review. Subject was also far away so quick focusing was not an issue.

The camera has a Sports setting "for when you want to take pictures of sports scenes or other fast-moving events." The owner's manual adds two notes: "Shutter speed may slow down for up to one second." and "This mode is suitable for taking pictures at distances of 5 m (15 feet) or more." The camera also takes movies, but, since I haven't tried either function, I can't tell you how well either of these features will meet your needs.

yes, you just go to menu and select burst on. You will then take 10 pics /sec as long as you keep the button down.

Nope, it has a quick shutter lag speed, I believe it's called. This was the number one priority for me too when researching cameras. I'm happy with this one. It also takes good pics in low light on the right setting and good action shots. Very happy with the camera for the price and size.

Yes it can take continuous photos. One picture immediately after the other.

Yes, you can select different shutter speeds with this camera. Also, on automatic, the shutter speed will change depending on the need. For example, low light the camera will slow down the shutter speed tremendously.

It's not rapid fire. You press the button, it beeps, then there is a pause for about 2 seconds and then the flash and capture, then there is a 3 second pause while it shows you the picture on the display and then another 5 second delay before you can take another picture. I would not use this for action photography.

You can enable continuous shooting in auto mode, and it will take pictures very quickly, so there will not be a delay.

Hi Mark, no, the camera does not have the High Speed Shutter Sync. It has both the Slow sync and Rear sync flash modes. Thanks_Mitch

No. It's response time is fast enough for action photos but not for high speed motion capture.

Yes it takes extremely fast shots. Rated for 8 shots per second. We have been extremely happy with it. There just has to be a lot of light with that fast of a shutter speed.

It has a continuous shooting mode. How rapid depends on settings and illumination. Maybe 2 or 3 times a second?

The camera is really good for snapshots. It takes the camera only a second to be ready for a quick picture. Depending on the mode it can take the camera a few seconds to process the picture after taken, but that is only the case when you set the camera on a mode where extra processing is needed. The usual automatic snapshot mode is really fast in both, taking the picture and processing it.

This camera is fabulous at fast moving sports. It can take a shot a second, consecutively. I love it!
