Compressing Images (Quality)
Compresses images down to half of their size or more, and overwrites an old size image with a newly
compressed image.
Compressing a previously saved image when the SmartMedia has run out of storage space during
photography increases space on SmartMedia so that you can continue taking photographs.
The following images cannot be compressed:
[] (BASIC) image quality images
Images taken with another camera
Protected images ( Page 106)
Movies
Images cannot be compressed either when the SmartMedia is write-protected.
Set the mode dial to [ ].
The last image frame appears on the LCD monitor.
Press the MENU button.

Memo
It is possible to compress an image and decrease quality. It is not possible to uncompress an image
to increase quality, or to restore an image after it has been compressed.
