10. Image Resolution

Resolution is the size of a digital image measured in pixels (dots), expressed as horizontal

number of pixels x vertical number of pixels. The VQ350 offers two resolution modes. The

highest (best) resolution is 640 x 480. This is called VGA resolution. The second choice of

resolution is 320 x 240. This is called QVGA resolution.

VGA resolution images will be the best possible images from VQ350. QVGA resolution images

are noticeably smaller when you view them on your computer. QVGA resolution is not

recommended for individual digital images. The primary advantage to QVGA resolution is that

you may store more images (four times more) than VGA resolution.

If you would like to get into the QVGA resolution, turn on VQ350. Press the Mode Button until

“ ” appears on the LCD display and “Hi” starts flashing “on” and “off.” Press the Shutter

Button to change “Hi” to “LO.” (QVGA mode)

To change the resolution from QVGA to VGA, press the Mode Button until “ “ appears on

the LCD display and “LO” begins flashing “on” and “off.” Press the Shutter Button to

change “LO” to “Hi”----which is the VGA mode.

11. High/Low Image Compression: Image Quality and Memory

Press the Mode Button until HD/LD appears on the LCD display. Press the Shutter Button

to set the picture to “ HD ” (highest image quality, using the least compression) or “ LD ”(lower

image quality, using more compression). Higher quality images captured in the HD Mode will

use more of your camera’s available memory (storage space). The LD Mode allows you to

store more images, but of a lesser quality.

12. Light Frequency

When capturing images or movie clips under indoor lighting, the image quality will be best if you

set VQ350 to match the frequency of the room-lighting. In general 60 Hz frequency is used in

US and Asia whereas 50Hz is most common in UK, Japan, and Europe. To change the

frequency, turn on VQ350. Determine the desired frequency. Press the Mode Button until

“ 50 ” or “ 60 ” appears on the LCD display. Press the Shutter Button to change the

frequency and select the one desired.

13. Using the Flash – Automatic (SA), or On (SF)

Press the Mode Button until SA/SF appears on the LCD display. Press the Shutter Button

to set the flash to automatic flash (Strobe Automatic) or forced flash (Strobe Forced). In

automatic mode, VQ350 will determine if the flash is needed or not. In forced mode (also

known as “fill- flash”) the flash will always fire, regardless of lighting conditions.

14. Techniques for Capturing the Best Images

The VQ350 captures images to record special memories and scenes you’ll want to share.

Here are a few tips for getting the best possible images from your camera.

1. Use good lighting. Give attention to your surroundings to insure your VQ350 can

perform well with adequate existing lighting or use the flash to fill shadows or light dim

areas.

2. Avoid uneven lighting and high contrast. Compose your scenes so that there are no

deep shadows or bright backgrounds. The key to good images is balanced scene

lighting. Use the fill - flash for scenes where high contrast and dark shadows are

unavoidable.

3. Minimum focus distance. Make sure your subject is not too close. The minimum focus

distance is 3-4 feet (one meter).

4. Position your primary subject in the center of the image. The VQ350 focuses best in the

center of the image. The edges of your images are softly focused, giving a soft perimeter

effect to each image.

The VistaQuest Corporation is proud that you have chosen its product

and hopes you will enjoy sharing “a clearer vision” of your memories and special moments

captured with your new camera with friends and family for many years.
