This option determines how long the monitor remains on if no operations are 
performed during menu display and playback (Playback/menus), while 
photographs are displayed in the monitor after shooting (Image review), and during 
live view (Live view), and how long the exposure meters, viewfinder, and information 
display remain on when no operations are performed (Auto meter-off ). Choose 
shorter auto-off delays to reduce the drain on the battery.

of shots taken.

taken each time the shutter-release button is pressed (if a
