QUICK START BASICS

Snapshot Image Size and Image Quality

Your camera lets you select from among various image size

and quality settings. Note that image size and quality

settings affect how many images can be stored in memory.
• You can change the image size and quality settings as

required to shoot a smaller or lower-resolution image for

attachment to an e-mail message, for publishing on a

website, etc. You can also select an image size that suits

the size of paper you plan to use for printing your images.

For details, see pages 63, 65, and 260.

How do I half-press the shutter button?

The shutter button is designed to stop about half way down

when you press it lightly. Stopping at this point is called a

“half-press”. When you half-press the shutter button, the

camera automatically adjusts exposure and focuses on the

subject it is currently pointed at.

Mastering how much pressure is required for a half-press

and a full-press of the shutter button is an important

technique for good-looking images.
