Large-Capacity Memory Cards
When enough memory remains on the memory card to
record a thousand or more pictures at current settings,
the number of exposures remaining will be shown in
thousands, rounded down to the nearest hundred (e.g.,
if there is room for approximately 1,260 exposures, the
exposure count display will show 1.2 K).
