MEMO

•The bigger the number of recorded pixels, the better the image quality becomes. As the number of recorded pixels becomes smaller, you will be able to record more frames to a Memory Card.

•The quality setting is retained even when the camera is turned off or the mode setting is changed.

•When changing the quality setting, the number of available frames also changes (➝p.151). The numbers to the right of setting show the number of available frames.

Changing the sensitivity setting ([ ISO])

Use this menu to specify required sensitivity setting of the ambient light around the subject.

The larger value of the sensitivity, the higher sensitivity is obtained. The higher sensitivity settings will allow you to take pictures in darker locations.

CHECK

Settings [AUTO]/[1600]/[800]/[400]/[200]/[100]/[64] Selecting [AUTO] as the sensitivity setting, the camera selects the best sensitivity setting for the subject’s brightness.

The selected sensitivity setting appears on the LCD monitor when the sensitivity setting is set to another setting excluding [AUTO].
