50 Quality In RECORDING mode, you can select the image quality (Data compression rate). INFORMATION The higher the QUALITY setting, the better the final image will be. However, the high quality setting will require more memory and therefore reduce the number of images you can store on the memory. SUPER FINE is the highest quality and NORMAL is the lowest setting. Choose the setting appropriate for your needs. The image file is stored in *.jpg (Default). But, if you select TIFF in the quality menu, the image file is stored in *.tif. TIFF format is an uncompressed image file format for an expert. If you take a picture with the TIFF file format, the number of available shots is decreased and the time for recording the image file will be longer because the TIFF file size is bigger than the JPG file format. When the TIFF file is being recorded to the memory card, a [PLEASE WAIT!] message will be displayed on the LCD monitor. This file format complies with DCF(Design rule for Camera File system). Even if the camera should be restarted, the quality setting is maintained. But, if you select TIFF quality, the quality setting will be changed to FINE after restarting the camera. When using the 32MB SD memory card, the specified shooting capacity will be as follows.
