into DCF format upon saving. If the " " mark is not given, files will be saved in the

"JPEG quality" adjustment slide bar
You can adjust the quality (compression ratio) of a
JPEG image to be saved using "Save to the SD card" or
"Save to the other folder" button.
If you choose higher quality, a file becomes larger; if you
choose lower quality, a file becomes smaller. (The size
of the lowest quality file is about one fifth of that of the
highest quality.)
Note:
• The JPEG format is suitable for natural pictures such as photographs. For
presentations created with PowerPoint and illustrations made with graphic
software, there may be significant loss of picture quality even if you choose a
higher quality.

disk of your PC or onto MO disk or others.

location" menu and folder icons, move to the folder where you can find the desired
file to save, and open the folder and press the "Save" button.
