A Image Mode
Choose an image mode, which is the combination of image size and image quality
(compression), according to how you plan to use the picture and the capacity of
the internal memory or memory card.
The larger the image, the larger the size at which it can be printed or displayed
without becoming noticeably “grainy,” limiting the number of pictures that can be
recorded.
The icon for the current setting is displayed in the monitor in shooting and playback
modes (A6, 7).
