The $4 camera has a burst mode that mimics the rapid-fire exposures taken by sports and action photographers with high-end cameras.
The $4 can take about 10 frames per second, which is often enough to capture great moments during fast action like sporting events, moving vehicles, or animals in motion.
To take a series of photos in burst mode, you don't need to do anything in advance - there's no setting or mode to change. Instead, just tap and hold your finger on the shutter release button. You'll capture a burst of photos as long as your finger remains on the button.
After you take a burst mode photo, it will appear in your camera roll like any other photo - though the $4 will choose one image to represent it, and "hide" the others. You can review the entire series at any time and save them all or choose one or more of your favorite photos and delete the rest.
Here's how to do it.
