The number of images that can be stored
The number of images (approximate) that can be stored in the memory card at the current image quality and resolution is reflected on the LCD
panel. Varying the image quality and resolution settings will affect the number of storable images. The following shows the approximate number
of storable images based on 8MB of available internal memory (when the camera is first turned on), as the image quality and resolution is
varied.
Notes:
l
The number of recordable images also varies with the subject and the capacity of the memory card.
l
The number of remaining images that can be recorded, shown on the Status LCD, will decrease by 1 every time you take a new shot. If,
however, the file size is too minimal, the number will remain the same after the shot is taken. By the same token, the number will decrease
by more than 1 if the file size is too large.
