Setting the Image Quality mode

Use this setting to change the amount an image is compressed. The higher the resolution and the lower the compression, the higher the image quality. However, higher quality images have larger file sizes and fewer of them can be stored in the memory of the camera. Also, the large images take up more space on your hard drive when you transfer them to your computer.

Note: Use the Image Quality setting with the resolution setting (VGA or XGA) to obtain higher or lower quality images. You can set the IQ mode to one of the following modes:
