Note
• When you see “TIFF” blinking in the control panel, the camera is in the RAW data mode. (
131)
In this mode, one picture file is approximately 7.6 MB, and you will be able to save approximately
4 shots on a card (32 MB card).
If you intend to use the images on a computer...
Before you transfer files to a computer, you should select how the files are to be named. (

Storage capacity of a memory card other than a SmartMedia and
CompactFlash card
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 reaches 999, 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 cluster size used on SmartMedia and CompactFlash cards, the same
number of images may require more or less space for storage on either card. When using a
CompactFlash card, the actual capacity of the card could be slightly more or less than the
capacity indicated in the control panel.
