ence—Camera Setup

This section details the options available in the SET-UP menu, where
you make changes to basic camera settings, and perform such tasks
as formatting CF memory cards. The SET-UP menu can also be used
to set image quality and size and choose a folder for storing images
and for playback. Some of the options in the setup menu can also be
accessed from the CSM and playback menu.

To view the SET-UP menu:

The SET-UP menu is displayed automatically when the mode dial is
turned to SETUP.
To end display of the SET-UP menu, set the mode dial other than
SETUP or turn the camera off.

The setup menu contains two pages of options:

Making Effective Use of Memory:
The Image Size & Quality Menu

Together, image quality and size determine how much space each
picture occupies on the CF memory card. This in turn determines the
total number of pictures that can be stored. To get an idea of how
different settings for image size and quality affect the number of
images that can be stored on a CF memory card, view the following
table, which shows the approximate number of pictures that can be
stored on 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, and 64 MB cards at different
combinations of image size and quality.

Note that the number of pictures that can be stored at each combination also
varies according to their composition (detail, number or colors).
