Setting the Picture Quality Use the Quality setting to select a picture resolution and compression. Picture resolution refers to the number of pixels in an image; compression is a method of reducing file size by carefully encoding data. The relationship between resolution and compression determines the picture quality. The camera offers four different resolutions. With the highest resolution (3.1 MP), three different compression settings are available: none, some, and high. Select a high resolution setting for more detailed images and larger print sizes. Use a lower resolution setting for smaller print sizes, and for conserving space on the Picture Card. All Quality settings are compressed JPEGS except the uncompressed setting, 3 which is a TIFF. The available Quality settings are: Quality Setting Name Resolution Compression File Size (in megapixels) (in pixels) Ratio/File Type (approx.) 3.1 MP (Uncompr) 3.1 MP (default) 3.1 MP (High Compr) 2.2 MP 1.6 MP 0.8 MP 2160 x 1440 2160 x 1440 2160 x 1440 1800 x 1200 1536 x 1024 1080 x 720 None/TIFF 1:5/JPEG 1:10/JPEG 1:5/JPEG 1:5/JPEG 1:5/JPEG 9170 KB 960 KB 480 KB 730 KB 550 KB 325 KB 35
