Xperia SP camera burst mode

Hi.

Just bought a brand new Xperia SP on EE pay-as-you-go. I want to ask about the camera on the phone. 

Is there a burst mode feature in the camera? The iPhone 5/5C has specs equal if not lower than the SP and yet the OS was capable of "handling" burst mode in some way. 

Please advice. Thanks.

no burst mode in sp , you can use a third app but the quality is too poor as the camera is not a good performer as you expect from an 8 mp cam

Such a disappointment from Sony. You would think with the kind of specs at least the camera should support burst mode. Sony doesn't seem to prioritise such issues and prefer to ignore suggestions from users like me.

I don't know of any good 3rd-party camera app out there that "supports" burst mode or even if there is an app will the burst mode work properly.

I don't think Sony has really thought this through. OS in general is slow and lack many features that you would expect from those specs.

I have emailed them at least 4 times in the past year (twice for the Xperia Z and twice for the Xperia SP) and it seems they haven't learned any lesson.

I know and i understand. We can only email and tell them and hope someday they realise that they have very buggy and very slow software albeit very good hardware.
