Picture Quality / Size Options (7.83)
Resolutions are as follows. For still photography, JPEG compression can be set to Fine, Normal or Economy quality.
Picture Effects Mode (6.00)
There are two types of effects for you to play with on the Z300. First, there are color filters, which add a distinct hue over the image. Black and white; sepia; red; green; blue; yellow; pink and purple are available.
The second effect caused equal parts hilarity and terror. There's a small button on the top of the camera, marked by a starburst icon. This turns on makeup mode, which runs from 0 to +12, and smoothes out your skin tone. At the highest level, +12 to makeup, you end up looking like a horrific waxwork mannequin. At the really low settings it's not too horrendous, but we find the entire concept vaguely unsettling.
