The numbers shown in the table are approximate numbers. If you mix fine quality and standard quality, the number of recordable pictures changes.

It may happen that pictures appear like a mosaic depending on the scene characteristics.

Remaining frame which is displayed on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder may not correspond with recorded frames, however, this is not a malfunction.
