Taking Pictures and Recording Video Clips

The Image Quality setting not only affects the quality of the

images but, as a result, also the number of images that can

be stored either in the internal memory in the camera or on

an optional memory card. For example, the 5MP Best setting

results in the highest quality images, but consumes more

storage space in memory than the next lower setting, 5MP.

Likewise, many more still images can be stored in memory

at the 1MP or VGA settings than at 5MP; however, these

settings will result in lower-quality images.
The Pictures remaining count at the bottom of the Image

Quality sub-menu screen updates when you highlight each

setting. See Memory Capacity on page 169 for more

information about how the Image Quality setting affects the

number of images that can be saved in the internal memory

in the camera.
The Image Quality setting (in the previous table) will appear

in the Live View screen. The new setting remains in effect

until it is changed again, even when you turn the camera off.
NOTE: This setting does not apply when recording

video clips.

NOTE: When you use digital zoom, the resolution reduces

as you zoom in. See Using Digital Zoom on page 38.
