■Setting the Image Size (Recording Resolution) 
and Image Quality (Compression Ratio)
You can set a desired image size (recording resolution) and image quality
(compression ratio) according to a given purpose.
Image size (Recording resolution)
2304×1728 (Approx. 4 million pixels)
1600×1200 (1.92 million pixels)
1280×960 (Approx. 1.23 million pixels)
640×480 (Approx. 310,000 pixels)
Image quality(Compression ratio)
Fine (Low compression (1/8) mode)
Normal (Standard compression (1/12) mode) 
Economy (High compression (1/16) mode)
The image size and quality selected here are retained even after the power is

When the image size is increased and image quality set to Fine mode, the data
size increases and the number of images that can be recorded in memory, etc.,
decreases. 
Use the appropriate settings according to how you want to use the captured
images. For example, select 2304 x 1728/1600 x 1200 if you want to print the
images, or 1280 x 960/640 x 480 if you want to send them over the Internet as
e-mail attachments. 
In Video Capture mode, 320 x 240 is selected as the image size (recording
resolution).

setting, see ■Specifications: Number of Recordable Images/Recording Time
