SHOOTING A SNAPSHOT
Specifying Image Quality
Your camera lets you select “Fine” (maximum image quality),
“Normal”, or “Economy” (maximum memory economy) for the
image quality setting. The initial setting is “Normal”. Select “Fine”
if you want to give priority to image quality, or “Economy” to give
priority to the number of images you can store in memory.
• For information about image size, image quality, and number
of images that can be stored, see page 227.
This setting applies to snapshots only.
• For information about movie image quality, see page 81.
1. In the REC mode, press [MENU].
2. On the “Quality” tab, select “ Quality” and
then press [X].
3. Use [S] and [T] to select the image quality
setting you want and then press [SET].

• The “Fine” setting helps to bring out details when shooting
a finely detailed image of nature that includes dense tree
branches or leaves, or an image of a complex pattern.
