InRECORDING mode, you can select the image quality (Data compression rate).
INFORMATION
Thehigher the QUALITY setting, the better the final image will be. However, the high quality setting will
requiremore memory and therefore reduce the number of images you can store on the memory.
SUPER FINE is the highest quality and NORMAL is the lowest setting. Choose the setting
appropriatefor your needs.
The image file is stored in *.jpg (Default). But, if you select TIFF in the quality menu, the
imagefile is stored in *.tif.
TIFFformat is an uncompressed image file format for an expert. If you take a picture with the
TIFF file format, the number of available shots is decreased and the time for recording the
imagefile will be longer because the TIFF file size is bigger than the JPG file format.
Whenthe TIFF file is being recorded to the memory card, a [PLEASE WAIT!] message will
bedisplayed on the LCD monitor.
Thisfile format complies with DCF(Design rule for Camera File system).
Evenif the camera should be restarted, the quality setting is maintained.
But,if you select TIFF quality, the quality setting will be changed to FINE after restarting the camera.
When using the 32MB SD memory card, the specified shooting capacity will be as follows.
