BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
Specifying Image Size
“Image size” is the size of the image, expressed as the
number of vertical and horizontal pixels. A “pixel” is one of
the many tiny dots that make up the image. More pixels
provide finer detail when an image is printed, but a higher
pixel count also causes the image’s file size of to be larger.
You can select an image size to suit your needs for greater
detail or smaller file size.
1.
In the REC mode, press [MENU].
2.
Use [왗] and [왘] to select the “REC” tab.
3.
Use [왖] and [왔] to select “Size”, and then
press [왘].
4.
Use [왖] and [왔] to select the image size (in
pixels) you want, and then press [SET].
• When selecting the image size, the image size value
(pixels) will alternate on the display with a
corresponding print size. The print size indicates the
optimum paper size when you print an image that is
the image size you select.
NOTE
• The “2 sec” self-timer setting is best when shooting
with a slow shutter speed, because it helps to avoid
blurring of images due to hand movement.
• In the case of the Triple Self-timer, the indicator
“1sec” appears on the monitor screen between the
recording of each image, indicating an interval of
about one second between image recording. The
actual amount of time required between images
depends on the camera’s current “Size” and “Quality”
settings, as well as the type of memory being used
and whether or not the flash is being used.
• The functions below are not available for use in
combination with the Triple Self-timer.
