Setting a picture size and quality that match your use of the pictures

Press [ MENUSET ] to display the [REC] mode menu and select the item to set. (P59)

A digital picture is made of numerous dots called pixels. Although you cannot see the difference on the camera’s screen, the more the pixels the finer the picture will be when it is printed on a large piece of paper or displayed on a PC monitor. Picture quality refers to the compression rate when saving digital pictures.

You can print pictures more clearly when a large picture size [ ] (7M) is selected. When a smaller picture size [ ]

(0.3M EZ) is selected, you can record more pictures and attach them to an e-mail or post them on a website because their file size is small.

Fine (Low compression):

This gives priority to picture quality. Picture quality will be high.

Standard (High compression): This gives priority to the number of recordable pictures. Standard quality pictures are recorded.

•The number of pixels that can be selected differs depending on the aspect ratio. If you change the aspect ratio, set the picture size.

•“EZ” is an abbreviation of “Extended optical Zoom”. (P29)

•The extended optical zoom does not work in [HIGH SENS.] in scene mode so the picture size for [EZ] is not displayed.

•Pictures may appear mosaic depending on the subject and the recording conditions.

•Refer to P105 for information about the number of recordable pictures.

•In simple mode [], the settings become as follows.
