To enhance the continuous shooting performance when you suspect the speed has dropped, you are recommended to format the SD card in the camera after you save all its images to your computer. (PowerShot SD400, SD430, SD450 SD600, SD630, and SD700IS only) For best performance a "low level format" should be performed.

The interval between shots may lengthen slightly when the camera's built-in memory fills. If the flash is firing, the interval between shots will lengthen to accommodate the flash's charging requirements.
