Adjusting focus
Manual adjustment of focus allows you
to determine where the camera's lens
will concentrate. While you can allow
the camera to focus automatically,
specific distances can also be set.

meters (m), bring the Main Menu screen
up in REC mode and use the up (+/ )
or down (–/ ) button to move the
highlight arrow to FOCUS. Press the
ENTER/MACRO button to change options.
Use the up (+/ ) or down (–/ ) button
again to select between the various

Setting image sharpness
The sharpness of an image directly
relates to how much memory the image
takes up. The sharper an image, the
more pixels (or picture elements) are
used. The more pixels used in images,
the fewer files can be stored on a
CompactFlash memory card.
In other words, you can set the
sharpness to maximum for all pictures
taken, but it will significantly reduce the
number of images you can store.
To chose between NORMAL, SHARP,
or SOFT image sharpness:

Adjusting color
You can alter color depth settings, or the
amount of colors absorbed in images,
which affects the number of images you
can store.
The more colors your camera is set to
capture, the larger the file of the picture
will be on the CompactFlash storage card.
Better quality means fewer pictures.
In the Main Menu, use the up (+/ ) or
