E-MAIL COPY

E-mail Copy makes a standard 640 X 480 (VGA) or 160 X 120 (QVGA) JPEG copy of an original still image so that it may be easily transmitted by e-mail. If an economy image is selected for E-mail Copy, the image quality will not change. E-mail copies are saved to the original card. The copy func- tion is selected in section 3 of the playback-mode menu (p. 65).

When the copy function is used, a folder is created for the files (p. 96); copy folder name ends in EM. Images with voice memos are copied with their audio files. Copies of locked images are unlocked. DPOF information is not copied.

The amount of data that can be converted into E-mail copies depends on the free space remaining on the memory card and the image size of the copy. The E-mail copy function has two menu options:
