Menu

Press the Menu button to show or hide the menu items. The options include: Image resolution, numbers of image per second, image quality, EV compensation, etc.

Image Resolution

There are 2 resolutions available for recording video: VGA (640x480), and QVGA (320x240). Comparing VGA video with QVGA video, VGA video is clearer, but the file size is larger; therefore, you can’t record as much.

Numbers of Image per Second

There are 3 settings: 10 images/sec, 20 images/sec, 30 images/sec. Having more images per second provides a smoother video, but the file size will be larger.

Image Quality

The camera provides 3 image quality settings: Fine, Normal, and Basic. The Image Quality Icon may look like a white square with one blue dot, thee blue dots, or 6 blue dots (in the shape of a triangle). The difference among these 3 image qualities is the video compression ratio. Basic quality (one dot) provides the highest compression ratio and smallest file size, but the poorest image quality. The icon with 6 blue dots in the shape of a triangle provides the best quality.

EV compensation

You can adjust the EV Compensation value manually. The value ranges from -2.0EV to +2.0EV in 9 levels. With all else being equal, the higher the EV compensation, the brighter the images.
