Taking Pictures
You can choose from six recorded pixels settings for still pictures.
The larger the number of recorded pixels, the clearer the details will
appear when you print your picture. As the quality of the printed picture
also depends on the image quality, exposure control, resolution of the
printer, and other factors, you do not need to select more than the
required number of recorded pixels. The more pixels there are, the larger
the picture and the bigger the file size.
Refer to the following table for the appropriate settings according to
expected usage.
The default setting is m.
• The camera does not emit the focus assist light under the following
conditions.
-In C (Movie), S (Fireworks) modes.
- When the focus mode is set to 3 (Pan Focus), s (Infinity) or z
(Manual Focus).
• The default setting in e (Pet) mode is P (Off).
