Drake,
From this PDF file, you need to make sure that you have the correct sequencing chosen on the camera. Review this .pdf and try a few variations of the setting to see if this corrects the situation.

http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital/lineup/s5600/images/fx_s5600.pdf

Go to Page 50 & 51 of the PDF to make sure the setting is in Long Period, and then turn to Page 39 of the .pdf and verify that the setting you have chosen actually works in that mode because it appears that the camera only accepts that mode in AUTO or Portrait.

You can get all the pictures if you set the 'Continuous Mode' to ' Long Period Continuous Shooting '.

To do this, look at the top of the camera.

Set the mode dial to 'Auto'
Turn the camera on to picture taking mode.
Press the ' Continuous mode ' button below it .

While the button is down, use the *right or left arrow to select ' Long Period Continuous Shooting '

Release the continous mode button.

* the arrow buttons are located beside the LCD screen.

Between bukit97 and myself, we've given you the correct methods and the actual directions to follow.

This is all that Fuji offers to help ( not much actually )
http://search.fujifilm.co.jp/support_e/template/qanda/x004a.asp?cat1=0&subcat=0-0&cat2=3-7

I've also noticed that the PDF file I linked to has been yanked from Fujifilm's site, that's great for customer relations !!

We tried to help.

Here's the archived page for the S5200;
http://www.fujifilmusa.com/JSP/fuji/epartners/digitalS5200Overview.jsp

Here's where they proclaim it will need to be in Long Period Mode:

Continuous Shooting Modes
1. Top-3 (max. 2 frames/sec., up to 3 frames,
2. Final-3 (max. 2 frames/sec., up to 3 frames ),
3. Long-period ( max. 0.9 frames/sec., up to 40 frames),
4. Auto bracketing (2 frames/sec., 3 frames @ +-1/3 EV, +-2/3EV, +-1EV)

Here's the quickstart guide:

Here the Support & Contact page:
http://www.fujifilmusa.com/JSP/fuji/epartners/ServiceSupportContact.jsp?prodcat=836806


...so I have to ask, Do you have a big enough card to hold the sequenced images?

Try it with a 1 gig card minimum, it sounds like your card is way too small.

You need to have the camera in LONG PERIOD to save or capture more than 3 images of the sequence.
