Burst script for Fuji GFX-50R

[whwang]

Hi,

My plan is to take continuous exposures of fixed exposure time in burst mode with Fuji GFX50R. I directly copied the burst script from the default script and slightly modified it as following:

BURSTNB,4
TAKEBST,C3,-,00:27.0,GFX-50R,1/1000,4,200,2.0,RAW,None,N,Burst of 4 pictures

Unfortunately only the first exposure is fired. Not the remaining ones. Camera's drive mode is already set to continuous shooting. I wonder what's missed.

The SEM version is the beta version SEM192v1b24Y.

The related log entries are:

I just found that although the camera is pre-set to continuous shooting, it goes back to single shooting after connecting it to SEM and disconnect (without doing anything else). Does this mean the burst or continuous shooting mode is not supported?

One more piece of information. The situation is similar with GFX-100S. Only the first exposure can be successfully launched with TAKEBST. The only difference is that after manually setting the camera to continuous mode, connecting and disconnecting to SEM, it stays in the continuous mode.
