43 Recorded Pixels and Quality Level Getting Started When the File Format is JPEG Choose the number of pixels (size) and quality level (JPEG data compression rate) of pictures according to how you intend to use the pictures you have taken. Pictures with larger recorded pixels or more Es are clearer when printed. 2 The number of pictures that can be taken (the number of pictures that can be recorded on an SD Memory Card) decreases with larger file sizes. The quality of the captured photo or printed picture depends on the quality level, exposure control, resolution of the printer and a variety of other factors so you do not need to select more than the required number of pixels. For example, to print in postcard size, i (1824×1216) is adequate. Set the appropriate recorded size and quality level depending on purpose. Choose the appropriate number of recorded pixels and quality level for JPEG images on the [A Rec. Mode] menu. 1 Setting the JPEG Recorded Pixels (p.146) 1 Setting the JPEG Quality Level (p.147) JPEG Recorded Pixels, JPEG Quality and Approximate Image Storage Capacity JPEG Quality JPEG Rec.

However, in Auto Bracket shooting, images will be stored in the same folder until shooting is completed, even if the number of images exceeds 500.
