Memory Card Capacity and Image Quality/Size
The following table shows the approximate number of pictures that can be stored on
a 512 MB card at different image quality and size settings.
Image quality
3, 4, 5
NEF + JPEG Fine
NEF + JPEG Normal 3, 4, 5
NEF + JPEG Basic 3, 4, 5
4
NEF (Raw)
TIFF (RGB)
JPEG Fine 5
5
JPEG Normal
JPEG Basic 5
1 All fi gures are approximate. Size of JPEG fi les varies with scene recorded.
2 Maximum number of frames that can be stored in memory buffer. Turning Long
Exp. NR on halves buffer capacity.
3 Total for NEF and JPEG images.
4 Figures assume Raw compression is set to NEF (Raw). Selecting Comp. NEF
(Raw) decreases fi le size of NEF (RAW) images by approximately forty to fi fty percent;
although number of exposures remaining does not change, number of images that
can be recorded increases.
5 Figures assume JPEG compression is set to Fixed size. Selecting Optimal quality
increases fi le size of JPEG images by up to eighty percent; number of images and
buffer capacity drop accordingly.
6 Applies to JPEG images only. File size of NEF (RAW) images can not be changed.
