Recorded Pixels And Image Quality - Pentax Optio 43WR Operating Manual

Recorded Pixels and Image Quality

Set recorded image size (the number of pixels) and quality to suit the
intended purpose for the image. The higher the numbers for recorded
image size and the more stars in the ratings for image quality, the clearer
the image when printed. However, because image storage volume
increases, the number of shots that can be captured decreases.
Settings for pixel size and image quality are configured on the
[Rec.Mode] menu.
