SELECTING IMAGE QUALITY
30 31
Storing uncompressed still-image files normally requires a large
amount of disk space. This usually results in small recording
capacity on the image memory cards. The Dimâge V uses JPEG
compression (an international standard) to compress the image data
before it is recorded on the image memory card.
Set the image quality
selector to FINE or STD.
. The image quality in Standard (STD) is lower than that in Fine.
. It is possible to switch between Fine and Standard modes at
anytime. There is no problem mixing quality modes on the same
image memory card. The number of images stored on a card will
vary depending on the quality modes selected. Use the display
button to check the estimated number of frames remaining
(see page 36).
