- Figures for the file size, possible shots, and maximum burst during continuous shooting are based on Canon's testing standards (ISO 100 and Standard Picture Style) using a 2GB card. These figures will vary depending on the subject, card brand, ISO speed, Picture Style, Custom Functions, etc.
- The maximum burst applies to high-speed continuous shooting. Figures in parentheses apply to an Ultra DMA (UDMA) 2GB card based on Canon's testing standards.
IMPORTANT
- If you select both RAW and JPEG, the same image will be captured in both types at the selected image-recording quality. The two images will be saved in the same folder with the same file numbers (file extension JPG for JPEG and CR2 for RAW).
- When
or
is selected, the LCD panel will display
