You can choose from six recorded pixels settings for still pictures.
The larger the number of recorded pixels, the clearer the details will 
appear when you print your picture. As the quality of the printed picture 
also depends on the image quality, exposure control, resolution of the 
printer, and other factors, you do not need to select more than the 
required number of recorded pixels. The more pixels there are, the larger 
the picture and the bigger the file size. 
Refer to the following table for the appropriate settings according to 
expected usage.

The default setting is m.

• The camera does not emit the focus assist light under the following 

conditions.
- In C (Movie), S (Fireworks) modes.
- When the focus mode is set to 3 (Pan Focus), s (Infinity) or z 

(Manual Focus).

• The default setting in e (Pet) mode is P (Off).
