Adjust still image camera settings
There are two kinds of settings for the still image camera:
Image setup
settings and main settings. To adjust
Image
setup
settings, see ‘Adjust color and lighting’, p. 37. The
setup settings return to the default settings after you close
the camera, but the main settings remain the same until
you change them again. To change the main settings,
select
Options
>
Settings
and from the following:
Image quality
—
High - Print
,
Med. - E-mail
, or
Low -
Multimedia
. The better the image quality, the more
memory the image consumes. The quality of a zoomed
picture is lower than that of a non-zoomed picture. If you
want to print the image, select
High - Print
(resolution
1600x1200). If you want to send it through e-mail, select
Med. - E-mail
(resolution 1024x768). To send the image
through MMS, select
Low - Multimedia
(resolution
640x480).
Glossary: Resolution is a measure of sharpness and
clarity of an image. Resolution refers to the number of

pixels in an image. The more pixels, the more detailed
the picture is, and the more memory it consumes.
