Image Size - Minolta DIMAGE 5 Instruction Manual

RECORDING MODE

IMAGE SIZE

Changing image size affects the number of pixels in each image.
The greater the image size, the larger the file size. Choose image
size based on the final use of the image - smaller images will be
more suitable for web sites whereas larger sizes will produce higher
quality prints.
Image size must be set before the picture is taken. Changes made
to image size are displayed on the data panel, EVF, and LCD monitor. Image size must
be reset manually. See setting the function dial section on page 40.

ABOUT THE FRAME COUNTER
The frame counter indicates the approximate number of images that can be stored on
the CompactFlash card at the camera's image quality and size settings. If the settings
are changed, the frame counter adjusts accordingly. Because the calculation is based
on average file sizes, the actual image may not change the counter or may decrease it
by more than one. The frame counter cannot exceed 999. When the number of record-
able images exceeds this, 999 will be displayed. The frame counter will continue to
count down when the number of recordable images falls below one thousand.
