Image Size

The size setting refers to the image
resolution in pixels. A higher image
resolution allows you to print that image in
larger sizes without degrading the image
quality.

The bigger the number of recorded
pixels is, the better the image quality
becomes. As the number of recorded
pixels lessen, you will be able to record
more images on a memory card.
