Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for determining the number of available shots and an image-shooting apparatus. The method includes: determining a current shooting mode; acquiring an average value of a picture size before current shooting in the current shooting mode, where the average value of the picture size is calculated according to storage space occupied by pictures shot before the current shooting in the current shooting mode and the number of the pictures shot before the current shooting in the current shooting mode; and determining, according to currently available storage space and the average value of the picture size, the number of available shots before the current shooting. The technical solution of the present invention improves precision of the determined number of available shots.
