The values in the table are measured according to Canon standards and may change

depending on the subject, memory card and camera settings.

The values in the table are based on 4:3 aspect ratio. If the aspect ratio is changed

(p. 78), more images can be shot because the data size per image will be smaller than

with 4:3 images. However, since M2 16:9 images have a setting of 1920 x 1080 pixets,

their data size will be larger than 4:3 images.

Lowering the JSO speed results in sharper images, but there may be an

increased chance of image blurring in certain shooting conditions.

Raising the ISO speed results in a faster shutter speed, reducing image blurring
