✽ Formatted SmartMedia used for both A and B.
RENEW : Pictures are stored on each
SmartMedia beginning with a file
number “0001”.
CONT. : Pictures are stored beginning from
the highest file number stored on the
last SmartMedia used.
Setting this function to “CONT.” makes file
management easier as it ensures that file names
are not duplicated when images are downloaded
to a PC.
●
!
If the SmartMedia already contains image files with
file numbers higher than the highest file number on
the last SmartMedia, images are stored beginning
from the highest file number on the current
SmartMedia.

SETTING THE FILE SIZE AND QUALITY
You can select any combination of 2 file sizes
(numbers of pixels) and 3 quality (compression
ratio) settings. Select the combination that best
suits your goals.
Use a large image size (1600 ✕1200) with a low
compression rate (FINE or NORMAL). However,
because this increases the amount of data in
each frame, the number of remaining shots
decreases.
These images are intended to be viewed on a
personal computer screen, so you should use a
small file size (640 ✕480). This reduces the
amount of data used for each shot and increases
the number of remaining shots.
Select “FINE” for better image quality, and
“BASIC” to fit more shots on the SmartMedia.
In most cases, the “NORMAL” setting provides
suitable image quality.
