CHOOSING IMAGE QUALITY
The camera has three image-quality modes: FINE, STD. (Standard) and ECON. (Economy).
Image quality is a function of compression rate. This changes in the following order: FINE Æ
STD. Æ ECON. The higher the compression rate, the lower image quality. For maximum quality
choose FINE. The lower the compression rate (the higher image quality), the lower the number
of images that can be saved on a CF card.
The following table lists the compression rates, capture format, file sizes and the number of
images that can be stored on an 8MB CF card in FINE, STD. and ECON. mode, respectively.
