Depending
on
the effect you wish to achieve, four image quality
modes are provided with this camera. Pictures taken
in
Hi
image quality mode are uncompressed images with much
detail, while pictures taken at the Basic setting
have lower
quality due to high compression.
It
follows that more frames
can be shot using the Basic mode than the
Hi
mode,
as
uncompressed images take up a considerable amount of
memory space (see chart below for details).
While pressing the QUALITY button, rotate
the command dial.
