Press the 3 button.
The camera returns to capture status.
You can choose from eight recorded pixels settings for still pictures.
The larger your 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. h is adequate for making postcard-size prints. 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 use.
The default setting is E.
•In C (Movie) and N (Frame Composite) modes, Focusing Area
cannot be set to W.
•In 9 (Green) and b (Auto Picture) modes, Focusing Area is fixed at
J.
If you change the [Focusing Area] setting frequently, you can save
time by assigning it to the Green button (p.117).
