I Standard number of shots per xD-Picture Card
Because the amount of data recorded varies depending on the subject, the number of available shots may not decrease
when recording ends, or may decrease by 2 frames. The discrepancy between the standard number of available shots
and the actual number of available shots increases in proportion to the capacity of the xD-Picture Card.

The lines in the scene frame roughly divide the
1997
recorded pixels into three parts horizontally and
vertically. When the image is printed, the resulting
print may be shifted slightly from the scene frame.
Use this frame when you want to position your
main subject in the center of the frame or when
you want to align your shot with the horizon.
This feature provides a clear guide to the
subject size and the overall balance of the shot
so that you get exactly the shot you want.
