WHAT IMAGE SIZE IS BEST?
Large resolutions offer higher picture definition but only if you are printing large pictures! The downside is that large
formats take up more space, require more processing time which cuts down on battery life. They can also take a long
time to e-mail. A 19” monitor will typically be set to 1024 x 768 pixels, so a large picture may be larger than the screen!
Note: The NATIVE RESOLUTION of the camera is 3MP. This is the highest level the sensor in the camera can accept.
Higher settings are achieved by interpolation - an electronic process whereby the camera increases the resolution by
"borrowing" nearby pixels and inserting them into the picture to increase the size. If the picture you are taking is
complex, increasing the resolution may not necessarily give you a clearer picture.
Adjusting the Picture Quality

The QUALITY setting affects picture compression. The lower
the setting the higher the compression.
Use a high value for pictures you wish to print.
A lower value is acceptable for on-screen viewing.
