*Figures for the file size, number of possible shots, and maximum burst are based on Canon’s 8 GB test card and testing standards (3:2 aspect ratio, ISO 100, and Standard Picture Style). These figures will vary depending on the subject, card brand, aspect ratio, ISO speed, Picture Style, Custom Functions, and other settings.

*Figures in parentheses apply to an UHS-I compatible 8 GB card based on Canon’s testing standards.
