File Type
Set a file type for pictures. Set [JPEG] or [TIFF] by pressing the left and right arrows on the four-
way controller.
[JPEG]: Saving by compressing files.
[TIFF]: Saving without compressing files.
Quality Level
Set Quality Level of compressing when File Type [JPEG] is set.
Set [Good], [Better], or [Best] by pressing the left and right arrows on the four-way controller.
When saving in File Type [JPEG], compression rate determines the Quality Level. The higher
the compression rate is, the smaller the capacity required for storage becomes, but Quality
Level will deteriorate.
Compression Rate: (higher) Good>Better>Best (lower)
Quality Level: (rougher) Good>Better>Best (clearer)
Resolution
Set image resolution when taking photos. Set [Full Size] or [1/4 Size] by pressing the left and right
arrows on the four-way controller.
[Full Size]: Taking photos at 1600x1200 Pixels
[1/4 Size]: Taking photos at 800x600 Pixels
Color
Set Color when taking photos. Select [Full], [B&W] or [Sepia] by pressing the left and right arrows
on the four-way controller.
Setting File Settings and the number of photos that can be taken
If File Settings is set, the displayed number of photos can be taken will be changed.
If File Type [TIFF] (non-compression) and Resolution [Full Size] are set, it is possible to
take photos at the best Quality level, but the number of picture that can be saved in the
Memory Card is lower.
Also, if File Type [JPEG], Quality Level [Good] and Resolution [1/4 Size] are set, the
number of photos can be saved in the memory card increases to the maximum, but
Quality Level is worst.
3After setting necessary items, press the right soft key to
select the soft menu [Exit].
The [Capture Settings] screen will be displayed.
If [Default] is selected by pressing the left soft key, the
initial settings will be restored.
4If the soft menu [Exit] is selected by pressing the right
soft key, the menu will return to capturing status.
You are now ready to take photos in the set file setting.
