q Image Quality
Choose the amount of compression applied to pictures. Lower compression ratios
result in higher quality pictures, but also larger file sizes, limiting the number of
pictures that can be recorded.
Image quality is shown by an icon in the monitor (A 6, 7).
C Note on the Image Quality Setting
The image quality setting is applied to the A (auto) shooting mode, scene modes, and P, S, A, and
M exposure modes simultaneously (Multi-shot 16 (A98) is excluded). The image quality setting in
the sport continuous menu is stored separately from the image quality setting in other shooting
modes and is not applied to the other modes.
D More Information
See “Number of Exposures Remaining” (A 90) for more information.
