Setting The Recording Quality (Quality Setting) - Olympus CAMEDIA C-2040 Zoom Instructions Manual

Setting the recording quality (Quality setting)

Use the procedure below to select the quality of your shots.
Five quality types available for still pictures are "TIFF", "SHQ", "HQ", "SQ1" and
"SQ2". The "SQ2" setting gives the lowest image quality, with the quality increasing
sequentially through the "SQ1", "HQ", "SHQ" and "TIFF" settings. The higher the
quality setting it will ensure you get high quality images even when the images are
printed in enlarged size. Recording and display times are longer for the SHQ and
TIFF settings than for the HQ, SQ1 and SQ2 settings. The quality settings when
you shoot a movie are "HQ" and "SQ". The "HQ" setting provides higher
image quality than "SQ".
