power consumptive.

When the storage memory is full, you may either erase the images that are no more required, or insert a new memory card.

The number of remaining shots shown on the LCD monitor is an approximate value based on the currently set resolution,
picture quality and memory size.

The actual number of remaining shots also differ depending on the shooting conditions. Hence, a single shot may reduce the
value by two or not change the value at all. This is not a malfunction of the LCD monitor. Also, upon the camera being turned
on, memory adjustments are made and the indicated remaining value may actually be higher than when the camera was last
turned off.

When you take pictures in bright locations or in clear fine weather, lines may appear on the monitor. This is not a malfunction.
