Setting a picture size and quality
that matches your use of the
pictures
A digital picture is made of numerous dots
called pixels. Although you cannot see
the difference on the camera’s screen, the
more the pixels the fi ner the picture will
be when it is printed on a large piece of
paper or displayed on a computer monitor.
Picture quality refers to the compression
rate when saving digital pictures.
Number of pixels
Select a higher number of pixels for clearer
pictures when printing.
Select a lower number of pixels to store
more pictures. Fewer pixels also means it
is easier to send pictures by e-mail or use
them on a homepage.

ratio. If you change the aspect ratio, set
the picture size.
[EZ] is an abbreviation of [Extended
optical Zoom].
The extended optical zoom does not
work in [HIGH SENS.] and [HI-SPEED
BURST] mode, so the picture size for
[EZ] is not displayed.
Pictures may have a mosaic-like
appearance depending on the subject or
the recording condition.
Refer to P107 for the number of
recordable pictures.
The number of recordable pictures vary
depending on the subject.
The number of recordable pictures
displayed on LCD monitor may not
correspond with recorded pictures.
