Hi,

I am the new owner of SL2 and I have a question.

When I half-press the shutter button, on the bottom-right corner, is show something like "L  24" or "L   25".

I understand that when the shutter button is not half-press, the screen will show either the remaining memory of your SD-Card and also the number of the picture while in playback mode.

However, I don't quite understand the information show at the bottom-right corner when the shutter button is half-pressed.

Thanks in advance.

Where is it?

Back display or bottom display?

Here I see nothing.

I don't have my SL2 with me to check, but I believe that indicator is the buffer level. It lets you know the number of shots left in the buffer.

Yes.  It's identified in the manual as "remaining memory capacity," and that's what it seems to be showing.  It only appears when you are in a multiple shot mode.  It's blank in single shot.

I figured there was some setting I used (single) that didn’t replicate the OP’s display.

Thank you very much all for the response. Yes, indeed it was the buffer capacity. I set to continuous 'L" speed and when I press down the shutter, the counter is decreasing. 

Thank you again for your helpfulness.
