IMAGE SIZE (MOVIE)
Movies can be recorded at two sizes: 640x480 and
320x240. The larger the image size, the higher the image
quality and the larger the file sizes. Image size is set in
section 1 of the movie menu (p. 44).
FRAME RATE
Movies can be recorded at two frame rates: 15 fps and 30 fps. 640x480 size image can
only be recorded at 15fps. The higher the frame rate, the smoother the moving image and
the larger the file sizes. Frame rate is set in section 1 of the movie menu (p. 44).
MOVIE FILE SIZES
If image size or frame rate is changed, the frame counter displays the approximate
number of seconds that can be recorded. The total time that can be recorded is
determined by the available memory and the recording rate. The actual file size is
determined by the scene; some subjects can be compressed further than others.
