1. All fi gures are approximate. File size varies with scene recorded and make of memory card.
2. Maximum number of frames that can be taken before shooting stops at ISO 100. Capacity of memory buff er
drops if noise reduction is on.
3. Image size applies to JPEG images only. Size of NEF (RAW) images can not be changed. File size is the total for
compressed NEF (RAW) and JPEG images.
