TIPS
• Resolution
The number of pixels (horizontal x vertical) used when saving an
image. If the image will be printed, higher resolutions (larger
numbers) are recommended so that the image will be clearer.
However, higher resolutions make the file size (amount of data)
larger, so the number of pictures that can be saved will be fewer.
• Pixels
A pixel is the smallest unit (dot) used to make up an image. Clear
large-sized printed images require millions of pixels.
• Resolution and picture size on a computer screen
When a picture is transferred to a computer, the size of the picture
on the computer screen varies depending on the computer's
monitor setting. For instance, a picture taken in 1024
resolution is the same size as the screen if you set the picture to
1 when the monitor setting is 1024
monitor setting is over 1024
picture only takes up part of the screen.
