Possible shots
The camera cannot use Type II CF cards or hard disk cards.
Ultra DMA (UDMA) CF cards can also be used with the camera. UDMA
cards enable faster data writing.
The number of possible shots varies depending on the remaining
capacity of the card, image-recording quality, ISO speed, etc.
Even if the actual number of possible shots is 2000 or higher, “1999” will
be displayed on the top LCD panel.
Setting [ z 3: Release shutter without card ] to [ Disable ] will prevent
you from forgetting to insert a card (p.493).
