Changing the Compression Ratio (Image Quality)
Still Images

Choose from two compression ratios, [ ] (Super Fine) and [ ] (Fine), as
follows. For guidelines on how many shots at each compression ratio can
t on a memory card, see “Number of Shots per Memory Card” (

] button, choose [ ] in the
menu, and choose the desired option
(

● In [ ] mode, mount the camera on a tripod or take other
measures to keep it still and prevent camera shake. Additionally,
you should set [IS Mode] to [Off] when using a tripod or other
means to secure the camera (

button halfway in camera-shake inducing, low-light conditions,
mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it still.
