English 62HINTi At a resolution, the camera processes the captured image internallyto produce a 2880 × 2160-pixel image.i When capturing images at a resolution, it takes 4 seconds after theshutter release button is pressed before the data is recorded (when usingthe supplied SD Memory Card).NOTEi The digital zoom cannot be used when the resolution is set to .About the resolution and compression settings (see page 102)i The image captured by a digital camera consists of a collection of smalldots. The resolution refers to the number of these dots, and the greater thenumber, the higher the image quality. As the resolution increases, the sizeof the resulting data also increases, and the number of images that can becaptured decreases. To compensate for this, this digital camera is able tocompress the data. This digital camera uses JPEG compression. If JPEGcompression is used, when the image is played back, an extremely smallportion of it is lost. The higher the compression rate, the more of the origi-nal image is lost.Therefore, in the still image and sequential shots shooting modes, this dig-ital camera also allows you to store image data at extremely low compres-sion to ensure that a minimum of the original image is lost. This is themode. Since the image data is large when the mode is used, com-pared to or compression, the digital camera requires more timeboth to store the data after the shutter release button is pressed and to dis-play the image in the playback mode.
