Quality

GFine (Low compression):

This type gives priority to picture quality. Picture quality will be high.

HStandard (High compression): This type gives priority to the number of recordable pictures and records standard quality pictures.

The number of pixels that can be selected differs depending on the aspect ratio. If you change the aspect ratio, set the picture size.

[EZ] is an abbreviation of [Extended optical Zoom]. (P30)

The extended optical zoom does not work in [HIGH SENS.] (P51) in scene mode so the picture size for [EZ] is not displayed.

Pictures may have a mosaic-like appearance depending on the subject or the recording condition.

Refer to P104 for the number of recordable pictures.

In simple mode [], the settings become as follows.
