*headdesk* (and a question for [livejournal.com profile] cookwitch)

I r so smart. I appear to have thrown out my English language copy of the instructions for my camera. *eyes lounge* Unless it's lurking somewhere obscure, I shall hunt again in a minute. *shakes head* Such a dim mousey!

In the meantime, [livejournal.com profile] cookwitch and any other camera savvy person - what am I doing wrong? I take 8 pics with my shiny new camera and the memory card says it's full! 8 pics take up 16mb of memory? They appear to be huge pics. Should I have upgraded to a better memory card or is there a setting or two I can tweak or something I should/should not be doing?

Thanks in advance for any helpful advice :)

1. Switch camera on. Turn to SCN setting.
2. Scroll through the functions until you get to the size selection. It should say L M1 M2 S. You can scroll through which size you want for your photos.
3. Buy a bigger card!

I have a 1gb card and my photos are set to the largest size. S just bought me a 2gb card, so I can get even more on there!

Hee, thanks :)

Well at least I'll be able to take a few more pics now, until I can afford a shiny new card. Thanks hon! :)
