Setting the recording quality (Quality setting) Use the procedure below to select the quality of your shots. Five quality types available for still pictures are "TIFF", "SHQ", "HQ", "SQ1" and "SQ2". The "SQ2" setting gives the lowest image quality, with the quality increasing sequentially through the "SQ1", "HQ", "SHQ" and "TIFF" settings. The higher the quality setting it will ensure you get high quality images even when the images are printed in enlarged size. Recording and display times are longer for the SHQ and TIFF settings than for the HQ, SQ1 and SQ2 settings. The quality settings when you shoot a movie are "HQ" and "SQ". The "HQ" setting provides higher image quality than "SQ".
