Shooting Options: The Shooting Menu r Image Size Choose the size (pixel count) for the pictures recorded. Pictures shot at large sizes require more memory and are suitable for printing, but the number of shots that can be taken will be fewer. Small image sizes are suitable for pictures that will be distributed by e-mail or used in web pages. However, printing small images at large print sizes will result in the image turning "grainy".
