The Memory Buffer
The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage,
allowing shooting to continue while photographs are being saved to
the memory card. Up to 100 photographs can be taken in succession;
note, however, that frame rate will drop when the buffer is full.
While photographs are being recorded to the memory card, the access
lamp will light (0 26). Depending on the number of the images in the
buffer, recording may take from a few seconds to a few minutes. Do not
remove the memory card or remove or disconnect the power source until
the access lamp has gone out. If the camera is switched off while data
remain in the buffer, the power will not turn off until all images in the
buffer have been recorded. If the battery is exhausted while images
remain in the buffer, the shutter release will be disabled and the images
transferred to the memory card.

Buffer Size
The approximate number of images that can
be stored in the memory buffer at current
settings is displayed while the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway. The illus-
tration shows the display when space
remains in the buffer for about 35 pictures.
