• 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 next
to
the
memory
card slot
will
light. 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.
Ifthe
battery
is
exhausted
while
images remain in
the
buffer,
the
shutter release
will
be disabled and
the
images transferred
to
the
memory
card.

The approximate
number
of
images
that

buffer at current settings
is
shown in
the
