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
memory
card
access
lamp
will light
(CD
15).
Depending on the battery
level
and 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.
B
Continuous Release
Modes
Continuous release
modes can
not
be used with the
built-in flash;
rotate
the
mode
dial
to®
(WJ

or turn the
flash
off
(aJ 34-36).
PI
Buffer Size
The approximate number
of
images
that
can be stored in the
OBOI
memory buffer at current settings
is
shown in the viewfinder
exposure-count
display while
the
shutter-release
button
is
pressed. The illustration
shows
the
display when space remains in
the
buffer for about
17
pictures.
