3 Check the number of exposures remaining.

The control panel and viewfinder show the number of photographs that can be taken at current settings (values over 1000 are rounded down to the nearest hundred; e.g.,

values between 1000 and 1099 are shown as 1.0 K). If two memory cards are inserted, the displays show the space

available on the card in Slot 1 (0 31). When the number of exposures remaining reaches A, the number will flash, nor jwill flash in the shutter-speed displays, and the icon for the affected card will flash. Insert another memory card (0 30) or delete some photos (0 40, 197).
