The camera has two memory card slots: 
one for XQD cards and the other for SD 
cards. When two cards are inserted, the 
role played by each is determined by the 
options selected for Primary slot 
selection
 and Secondary slot function
when Secondary slot function is set to 
the default value of Overflow (
card in the secondary slot will only be 
used when the card in the primary slot is 
full.
The control panel display shows what 
cards are currently inserted (the example 
here shows the display when cards are 
inserted in both slots). If an error occurs 
(for example, if the memory card is full or 
the card in the SD slot is locked), the icon 
for the affected card will flash (
The control panel and viewfinder show 
the number of photographs that can be 
taken at current settings (values over 
1000 are rounded down to the nearest 
hundred; e.g., values between 2100 and 
2199 are shown as 2.1 k).
