Change Camera Mode - Nintendo 3ds Manual

How many photos can you save?
The remaining number of photos you can save is displayed on the
upper screen. This is the approximate number of photos you can save
in the current save location (System Memory or an SD Card), but it's
only an estimate.
Data size can vary depending on the photo, so it's possible that taking
one photo may reduce the number of remaining photos by two or not
reduce the number at all.
NOTE: A maximum of 3,000 photos can be saved to an SD Card.
About photo data
• When you take photos with the outer cameras, both 3D photo data (saved as MPO format), and left-eye photo data
(saved as JPEG format) are created. When you take a photo with the inner camera, photo data is saved in JPEG format.
• Photo data is saved to the "DCIM" folder on the SD Card.
How far away should your subject be?
When taking photos, it's best to be at least 12 inches away from your subject. If you take a photo of something too close,
the photo may turn out blurry, similar to when you try to look at something too close to your face.
