Setting image quality
Depending on the effect you wish to achieve, four image quality
modes are provided with this camera. Pictures taken in Hi
image quality mode are uncompressed images with much
detail, while pictures taken at the Basic setting have lower
quality due to high compression. It follows that more frames
can be shot using the Basic mode than the Hi mode, as
uncompressed images take up a considerable amount of
memory space (see chart below for details).
While pressing the QUALITY button, rotate
the command dial.
—The ► arrow in the LCD panel points to one of
the fotiowing settings.
