Storage capacities of other MB cards, Selecting Image Quality Record Mode

Page 33 highlights

Storage capacities of other MB cards The storage capacity of a memory card is roughly calculated based on the file sizes of the images. However, please understand that due to variables in data handling by the camera, file compression, memory management, and so on, the estimation of the number of storable picture may not always 2 be precise. Note • When the number of total shots is 999 or over, the number 999 is displayed in the control panel. • The number of storable pictures displayed in the control panel changes after you select another record mode or select files for printing. • The amount of data required to compose a picture depends on the subject, so you may be able to store more or fewer images on a card. Because of this difference in size, you may not be able to store another picture, even after you delete one image from the card with single-frame delete. • Because of the difference in memory partitions on the SmartMedia, CompactFlash, and Microdrive cards, the number of images stored may vary due to the differences between the card formats. When using a CompactFlash card, the actual capacity of the card will be slightly more or less than the capacity indicated. Selecting Image Quality (Record Mode) (© 108) 31

Storage capacities of other MB cards
The storage capacity of a memory card is roughly calculated based on the file sizes of the images.
However, please understand that due to variables in data handling by the camera, file compression,
memory management, and so on, the estimation of the number of storable picture may not always
be precise.
Note
When the number of total shots is 999 or over, the number 999 is displayed in the control panel.
The number of storable pictures displayed in the control panel changes after you select another
record mode or select files for printing.
The amount of data required to compose a picture depends on the subject, so you may be able to
store more or fewer images on a card. Because of this difference in size, you may not be able to
store another picture, even after you delete one image from the card with single-frame delete.
Because of the difference in memory partitions on the SmartMedia, CompactFlash, and Microdrive
cards, the number of images stored may vary due to the differences between the card formats.
When using a CompactFlash card, the actual capacity of the card will be slightly more or less than
the capacity indicated.
