Photograph Quality Settings
The number of pictures you can fit on a memory card is determined by photograph
quality. (See page 19.)
The camera keeps your last choice when it is turned off.
The camera is set in the "Normal" compression mode at the factory. Changing to
"Fine" mode will improve the quality of your pictures (See page 19.), but the number
of pictures that fit on a single memory card will be reduced.
CONFIRMING THE NUMBER OF PHOTOGRAPHS
The number of pictures stored on the memory card (at current quality and
resolution settings) is displayed on the LCD monitor.
Approximate Number of Images
Frame data will also be installed on the provided SD Memory card. This
may reduce the total indicated on the table.
ALERT
❏
The numbers are the result of factory tests made by the manufacturer.
❏
The numbers on the LCD monitor are only a guide. The actual numbers may
vary.
❏
The numbers on the LCD monitor may vary with image capture settings.
❏
The number on the LCD monitor may change after each picture is taken. Each
one will take up different amounts of memory. The number is calculated based
on the factory average.
❏
When you take VIDEO CLIPS the amount of pictures you can take will change
drastically. See page 37 for more detailed information on VIDEO CLIPS.
❏
The number of the sheets which can take pictures is a maximum of 9999.
FYI
Comparing the SD and MultiMedia Memory Cards
You may use both the SD Memory card and the MultiMediaCard (MMC) with this
camera. The SD Memory card is quite fast and has the ability to hold large amounts
of data. The MultiMedia Card uses less power so that the batteries last longer.
If you decide to buy a new memory card, the SD Memory card is recommended for
its speed and ability to lock and protect your data. (See page 50.)
FLASH CONTROL
You can change the flash setting by pushing the FLASH button and
observing the icons on the LCD monitor.
The mode changes each time you press the FLASH button.
Note:
Blurred Shot
When taking pictures in "No Flash" setting or in the "Forced Flash" setting (Slow
Synchro), the shutter will be slower than 1/30 sec. at wide angle or 1/60 sec. at
telephoto. At such slow speeds in low light, the image may blur from camera motion,
therefore, a green light will flash to warn you.
