Guide to choosing image size and image quality

For high-quality printing or to give priority to image quality, choose a large image size. For files you want to send as e-mail attachments, choose a small image size to keep the file size small.

When image quality is particularly important, select [F] (Fine) as the Quality setting. Otherwise, choosing the [N] (Normal) setting will give smaller file sizes and increase the number of pictures you can shoot.
