[QUOTE="cwgrizz, post: 586536, member: 27017"] @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member-13090-horoscope-fish.html"]Horoscope Fish[/URL], You are absolutely correct Paul. The manual doesn't make sense, however. I wasn't questioning the pictures left that could be taken, only that the manual stated the reference to [B]"Slot 1" only[/B]. I just checked my D7100 and with both SD cards in the slots, it is reading 435 (camera on or off, makes no difference). Then I took the card out of Slot 2 and the number dropped to 305. As you stated, it does reflect both cards, but that could also be misleading. I have Slot 1 set up for RAW and Slot 2 for jpeg. By looking at my numbers it doesn't make sense. By removing the card from Slot 2, I drop only 130 shots. If jpeg is a compressed file requiring less storage space, how can Slot 1 have capacity for 305 more shots and Slot 2 only 130? :confused: I had not checked my camera prior to this, only read the manual. My mistake. Ha! [/QUOTE]
