Selecting the Drive Mode

¡
When you shoot, the images are first stored in the camera's internal
memory and then transferred to the memory card. When the internal
memory becomes full during continuous shooting, the camera cannot
continue to take more pictures until the images are transferred to the
memory card. As the images are transferred to the memory card, you will
be able to take more pictures. Press the shutter button halfway to see the
maximum burst for continuous shooting in the viewfinder's lower right.
The maximum burst is displayed even when there is no memory card in
the camera. Make sure a memory card has been installed before
shooting.
¡
If "Card Full" is displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel, wait
until the access lamp turns off or stops blinking, then replace the memory
card.
