I noticed that when I set the camera to 240fps and do end trigger, after it has buffered in and recorded the 8 seconds, if I want to take another shot, I must go into the menu and redo it all over again.

Isn't there a way where it records the 240 fps from the buffer, then all I have to do is hit record again and all settings remain the same?

Mine stays in the 240 or 120 and I can keep shooting as long as I don't push slow button in between.

If you set the 700 to always use 240 or whatever to the slow/fast button (I think that is what it is called). if you want to change the rate you need to use the menu system, but not just recording.

Once you get an Odyssey this becomes much easier just start and stop record like normal -- No waiting ford reading a cache. And you get pristine 2K RAW, this is a huge difference in quality and in ease of shooting.
