Setting the Photo Quality and Photo Resolution

In Record mode, pressing the photo quality and resolution button (a) on the top of the camera cycles through settings that affect the quality of your photos, the size of your digital photo files, and the number of photos your camera can store.

The photo quality setting (b) — indicated by the number of stars in the

status LCD — refers to the type of image compression used for each photo resolution setting. The lower the compression (the more stars), the better the quality. A photo with lower compression takes up more memory but produces a higher quality digital photo when printed. Lower compression also reduces the number of photos the camera can store.

The photo resolution setting (c) — indicated by the small and large picture icons on the top of the camera — refers to the number of pixels in a digital photo. The higher the resolution, the more pixels in your photo and the more memory the photo uses. A higher resolution takes up more memory but produces a higher quality digital photo when printed.
