The following table helps explain the pre-defined Image Quality settings in more detail:

Setting

Description

4MP

Images will be full resolution and have the lowest

 

pre-defined compression. This setting produces very

 

high quality images, with greater color accuracy, but

 

uses the most memory. This is recommended if you

 

plan to enlarge images, or print images to a size

 

larger than 18 by 24 cm (8 by 10 in).

 

 

4MP

Images will be full resolution and have medium

 

compression. This setting produces high quality

 

images, but uses less memory than the 4MP setting

 

above. This is the default setting and is

 

recommended if you plan to enlarge images, or print

 

images to a size of 18 by 24 cm (8 by 10 in) or

 

larger.

 

 

2MP

Images will be 2MP (medium) resolution and have

 

medium compression. This setting produces high-

 

quality images, but uses less memory than the 4MP

 

settings above. This setting is recommended for

 

printing images up to 13 by 18 cm (5 by 7 in).

 

 

VGA

Images will be 640 by 480 (lowest) resolution and

 

have medium compression. This is a memory-

 

efficient setting, but produces the lower quality

 

images. This setting is good for images you want to

 

send via e-mail or post to the Internet.
