RECORDING
E-59
• Numbers in parentheses are compressed image file sizes.
• Use the REC menus (page E-79) to select the quality set-
ting you want.
• Note that the maximum number of images that can be
stored in a single folder is 250. Because of this, even if you
are using a card that allows storage of more than 250 im-
ages, the camera’s monitor screen will show capacity for
up to 250 images only. You can store additional images by
changing to another folder.
• The number of images that can be recorded may differ
when you use Card Browser (page E-111).

cally changes shutter speed and aperture in accordance with

exposure to compensate for backlighting, indirect indoor
lighting, dark backgrounds, and other special conditions.
• Press DISP to turn on the monitor screen (page E-31).
