* When [Aspect ratio] is set to [16:9], you can record more images than the numbers
shown in the table above. However, if it is set to [RAW], the number is the same as
that of the [3:2] aspect ratio.
The approximate number of images that can be recorded is as follows when
you use the camera with the battery pack (supplied) at full capacity.
Note that the actual numbers may be less than those indicated depending on
the conditions of use.
• The number is calculated with a battery pack at full capacity and in the
following situation:
– At an ambient temperature of 25°C (77°F).
– [Quality] is set to [Fine].
– Focus mode is set to (Automatic AF).
– Shooting once every 30 seconds.
– The flash strobes once every two times.
– The power turns on and off once every ten times.
• The measurement method is based on the CIPA standard.
(CIPA: Camera & Imaging Products Association)
