Image Size And Quality - Sony DSC-F828 Service Manual

Image size and quality

You can choose image size (number of
pixels) and image quality (compression
ratio) based on the kind of images you want
to shoot. The larger you make the image
size and the higher you make the image
quality, the better your image, but also the
larger the amount of data needed to preserve
your image. This means you can save fewer
images in your recording medium.
Choose an image size and quality level
appropriately for the kind of images you
want to shoot.
