Technical Notes / Appendix
Memory Card Capacity and Image Quality/Size
The following table shows the approximate number of pictures that can be stored on a
512MB Panasonic Pro HIGH SPEED memory card at different image quality and size settings.
1. All figures are approximate and assume average file size; actual file size and memory card capacity
may vary with scene recorded and make of memory card.
2. Maximum number of frames that can be taken before shooting stops.
Actual number of photos
that can be taken before buffer fills may vary with make of memory card.
Additional photographs
can be taken as soon as enough memory is available in buffer.
3. Total file size of NEF (RAW) and JPEG images.
Exposure Program (Mode P)
The exposure program for mode P is shown in the following graph.
The maximum and minimum values for EV vary with ISO sensitivity; the above graph assumes an ISO
sensitivity of ISO 200 equivalent.
When matrix metering is used, values over 17
