Checking how much space on the built-in memory or memory card is available/used

Solution

    You can check how much total space is available on the internal memory and memory card (and how much is used), how much time is available for recording videos (and how much is used for video recordings), and how many still images have been taken (and how many more can be taken). For memory cards, you can also check the SD Speed Class.
    You can check the amount of space available or space used from the setup menu in the following modes:
    • [Available Space in Memory]: Recording mode
    • [Used Space in Memory]: Playback mode
