Nikon 880 - Manual (Page 95)

The camera is equipped with a memory buffer for temporary storage of photos during shooting,
allowing you to take several photographs in succession without waiting for the images to be transferred
to the memory card. The number of images that can be stored in the buffer depends on the quality and
size of the images. When the buffer becomes full, an hourglass icon ( ) will be displayed in the monitor
until enough data have been transferred to the card to allow more photographs to be taken. More
photographs can be taken as soon as enough memory becomes available in the buffer. At settings of
Continuous and VGA Sequence, you can continue to take photographs as long as the shutter-
release button is held down, although the rate at which photographs are taken will drop when the
buffer fills up.
While images are being transferred from the buffer to the memory card for permanent storage, the
green AF lamp next to the viewfinder will blink. Do not remove the memory card from the camera while
the AF lamp is blinking. Doing so could result in loss of data or in damage to the camera or the card. Be
sure that the camera is off before you remove the memory card.
When battery power is low, ten is the maximum number of shots that can be taken in a single sequence
at settings of Continuous and VGA Sequence.
