Selecting Photo Size and Quality
Still images are recorded on the
memory card using JPEG compression.
As a general rule select a larger image
size for higher quality. Select the
[
LW
1920x1080] size for photos with an
aspect ratio of 16:9.

* The number displayed on the right corner
indicates the approximate number of
images that can be recorded with the
current quality/size setting.
NOTES
• Depending on the number of images on
the memory card (Windows: 1,800
images or more; Macintosh: 1,000
images or more), you may not be able to
transfer images to a computer. Try using
a card reader.
• Connection to a PictBridge-compatible
printer will not work when the memory
card contains 1,800 images or more. For
best performance, we recommend
keeping the number of images on the
memory card under 100.
