The Shooting Menu
• Print sizes assume a printer resolution of approximately 300 dpi.
• The size of pictures when printed depends on the resolution of the printer: the
higher the resolution, the smaller the final print size.
Number of exposures remaining
Together, image quality and size determine how much space each pic-
ture occupies on the memory card, which in turn determines the total
number of pictures that can be stored. To get an idea of how different
settings for image quality and size affect the number of pictures that can
be stored, view the table below, which shows the approximate number
of pictures that can be stored on 16- and 64-megabyte memory cards at
different combinations of image quality and size.
*Figures are approximate. File size of JPEG images depends on the scene
recorded, producing wide variations in the number of images that can be
stored.
