Camera Comments

For more specific information or an in depth look at operating this camera, refer to the camera guide found on the CD that came with the camera. The CD reference material is quite good.


Your camera’s settings will revert to factory settings every time you shut it off. So, if you are in the field, and you find all your shots are out of focus, shut off the camera and turn it on again. You now have a fresh start to picture taking.


Photos for the web are usually much smaller than 2288x1712 in size. One way to reduce the photo quality to web size is to copy the picture file to your computer hard drive, right mouse click on the photo/send to/mail recipient/and email yourself the smaller picture version.


Another way to reduce picture size is to take smaller, reduced quality photos. (See chart below.) To set your camera to take smaller resolution photos, turn your camera on to P, press and hold the Quick View button until the LCD turns on, press “OK”, press DIGITAL CAMERAS HOW TO GUIDE THE DESIGN OF THIS once, pressDIGITAL CAMERAS HOW TO GUIDE THE DESIGN OF THIS twice to highlight SQ1 or SQ2, press DIGITAL CAMERAS HOW TO GUIDE THE DESIGN OF THIS twice highlighting “Normal” and then press “OK” until the LCD screen returns to normal.


By reduced your picture resolution, you tailor the size and quality of the photos to fit your needs and increase the number of pictures you can fit on the memory card.


Caution: When reducing the quality of your photos you are stuck with that quality. Taking high quality photos and using the computer to reduce the size of your shots to fit your needs is easy. However, it is impossible to take a low-resolution photo and increase its resolution to fit a higher quality use.
