* 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 510 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].
– [Autofocus 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.
