Recording pictures (advanced)

ª Changing the Quality

“Quality” refers to the amount each 
image is compressed. Lower 
compression results in superior picture 
quality. Higher compression allows you 
to store more images on your SD 
Memory card.

Preparation
Set the mode dial except for [

]/

[

]/[

]. (P8)

•

: Fine (Low compression)

It gives priority to picture quality to 
record high quality pictures.

•

: Standard 

(High compression)

It gives priority to the number of 
recordable pictures and records 
standard quality pictures.

¬Suggestions/Tips ¬

• It may happen that pictures appear like 

a mosaic depending on the subject or 
the recording condition.

• The number of recordable pictures 

depends on the subject.

• The number of remaining pictures may 

not correspond with recorded pictures.

• Refer to P94 for the number of 

recordable pictures.

ª Taking Pictures using Spot Mode

When using Spot mode the size of the 
area used to calculate the focus and 
exposure is decreased. It is useful when 
you may be shooting through a group of 
people and want to designate where in 
the group the camera will calculate the 
exposure.

Preparation
Set the mode dial except for [

]/

[

]/[

]. (P8)

When selecting [SPOT MODE] and 
setting it to [ON], the spot AF area 

 

1 and spot metering target 

 

2 

appear. Aim the spot AF area to the 
subject and press the shutter button 
halfway for the AF/AE lock.

• When the subject is dark, it may not be 

focused properly.

• Background may become dark or 

whitish depending on the subject 
because the exposure is set 
appropriately in the spot AF area.
