The actual number of shots may be fewer than indicated above
depending on the shooting conditions.
Pressing the shutter button halfway for long periods or operating only the
autofocus can also reduce the number of possible shots.
The number of possible shots will decrease with more frequent use of
the LCD monitor.
The lens operation is powered by the camera’s battery. Depending on
the lens used, the number of possible shots may be lower.
Using the Image Stabilizer of the lens will decrease the number of
possible shots (shorter battery life).
For battery life with Live View shooting, see page 112.
See the [7 Battery info.] menu to further check the battery’s condition
(p.212).
If size-AA/LR6 batteries are used in Battery Grip BG-E6, a four-level
