Types of record modes
Record mode allows you to select a combination of pixel count and compression
rate for the images you record. An image consists of pixels (dots). When you
enlarge an image with a low pixel count, it will be displayed as a mosaic. If an
image has a high pixel count, the file size (amount of data) will be larger and the
number of storable still pictures will be lower. The higher the compression, the
smaller the file size. However, the image will have less clarity when played back.
