Transferring a Signature File

This section explains the [TRANSFER SIGNATURE] function for transferring a
signature file created on the PC to the camera.

Note

• Signature files must be made using the paint application software.

Signature File

There are 3 kinds of signature data of different sizes for use in any image
quality mode. The 3 kinds are: for 2048

1536, for 1024

768 and for 640

480. The optimum signature effect in any image quality mode can be obtained
by making an image file for each of the 3 image quality modes and transferring

them to the camera. For example, if you want to make a rectangular signature
to cover 1/8 vertically

1/8 horizontally of the image, make a rectangular image

file 256

192 for 2048

1536, make a rectangular image file 128

96 for 1024

768, and 80

60 for 640

480.

However, if you only shoot in image quality mode 2048

1536, it is bothersome

to make image files for 1024

768 and 640

480. At such times, only make an

image file for 2048

1536. In this case, the data for 1024

768 and 640

480

will be made automatically. Due to the compression, the image quality will be a
little coarse. Alternately, if you only shoot in image quality mode 640

480,

then only make an image file for 640

480. In this case, the data for 2048

1536 and 1024

768 will be made automatically. At this time, due to

enlargement, the image quality will be quite coarse.

●

Size

Decide the size of the image file (number of vertical and horizontal dots) taking
into consideration the relative size and taking one of the 3 image quality modes,
2048 (w)

1536 (h), 1024 (w)

768 (h) and 640 (w)

480 (h), as a guideline.

For example, if you want to make a rectangular signature to cover 1/8 vertically

1/8 horizontally of the image in image quality mode 2048

1536, make an

image file of 256

192 pixels.

Important

Note

• Make the signature file so that the number of pixels horizontally

vertically is within 90000. Examples are the image files for 300

300

or 450

200.
