Setting Image Resolution and Quality
As you get to know the digital still camera, you can set the image resolution (number of vertical and horizontal
pixels) and image quality (compression ratio) based on the types of images you want to shoot. These settings
affect the number of images that can be stored in memory, or on a memory card.
Higher resolution and higher quality images provide finer detail but cause the images' file size to be larger.
To change image resolution or image quality, perform these steps below:
1. Press the button to turn on the camera.
2. Press the MODE button to access in [ (CAMERA)] mode with
▲,▼, t, or u, then press the OK button.
3. Press the button.
The [PICTURE] menu is displayed.
4. Use ▲,▼, t, or u to select [SIZE], then press the OK button.
5. Use ▲ or ▼ to select the desired setting, then press the OK button.
6. Follow the step 4 and 5 above to set the [QUALITY].
The possible number of shots and recording time depend on the storage size, resolution and quality settings
and the subject of the image to be captured.
You can resize the images later. (Please refer to section in this manual titled "Resizing an Image" for further
detail.
