• When the remaining number of images
recordable is more than 9999, “>9999” is
indicated.
Image size and quality
You can choose image size (number of
pixels) and image quality (compression
ratio) based on the kind of images you want
to shoot. The larger you make the image
size and the higher you make the image
quality, the better your image, but also the
larger the amount of data needed to preserve
your image. This means you can save fewer
images in your “Memory Stick.”
Choose an image size and quality level
appropriately for the kind of images you
want to shoot.
You can resize the images later (Resize
function, see page 65).
You can choose an image size from among
the five options in the following tables. The
image sizes shown below show minimum
settings as examples. When you want to
improve image quality, select a larger
image size.
1) This option records images in a horizontal to
vertical proportion of 3:2 to match the size of
the print paper used.
