To take more shots...
Repeat steps 4 and 5 above to take more shots. Note however that the camera cannot take
a shot if the green lamp is blinking rapidly. Wait for the lamp to slow down or go off before
shooting again.
The remaining picture count, displayed at the lower left of the monitor, tells you how many
more shots you can fit into the card. If the count falls to 0, you must delete some images or
replace the card before you can shoot again. Of course it is possible to save the images to
your computer before deleting them from the card. For more information, please refer to the
camera's operating instructions.
