Taking Pictures
You can use this camera to take still images. The recorded image file format is
JPEG. The maximum recordable number of images depends upon the free space
of the internal memory or SD card. Moreover, the image resolution and quality will
also affect the number of recordable images. The higher image resolution and
quality, the more memory space that is needed.

icon displayed on the LCD screen. Set the image resolution and quality
