* All fi gures are approximate. File size of pictures depends on scene recorded, produc-
ing wide variations in number of images that can be stored. If memory remains for
more than 999 pictures, camera exposure count display will show 999.
Image Size
Smaller images create smaller fi les suited to transmission by e-mail or use in web pages.
When printed at larger sizes, however, small images will be rough and uneven in ap-
pearance.
Print Size
The size of images when printed depends on the printer resolution: the higher the
resolution, the smaller the fi nal print size.
Image Mode
The current image mode is shown by an icon at the bottom
left corner of the display.

White Balance
The color of the light refl ected from an object varies
with the color of the light source. The human brain
is able to adapt to such changes in color, with the re-
sult that we see white objects as white, regardless of
whether they are in the shade, direct sunlight, or under
incandescent lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this
adjustment by processing information from the camera's image sensor (CCD)
according to the color of the light source. This process is known as a "white
balance adjustment."
