Figures noted herein reflect standard Canon shooting conditions. Actual file sizes may vary with different subjects.
• Large and small sizes cover the exact
same scope, but reproduce the images
with differing numbers of dots. On
computer monitors, the large format
displays at 1536 x 1024 pixels, while the
small displays at 768 x 512 pixels.
• At the CCD RAW setting, images are
recorded without compression onto the
CF card. Although fewer images can be
recorded, high-quality images can be
obtained.
• The small and CCD RAW settings are
available in program mode.
• The size is automatically set to small/
fine or small/normal in continuous
shooting mode (p. 54).
1. Set the mode dial to auto or program.
