Rec. to multiple
Each image is recorded to the CF and SD cards simultaneously at the same image size. You can also select RAW+JPEG.

When [Rec. separately] or [to multiple] is set, the image will be recorded under the same file number to the CF and SD cards. Also, the LCD panel will display the number of possible shots of the card having the lower number. If one of the cards becomes full, [Card* full] will be displayed and shooting will be disabled.
