Connectivity / ExtrasPicture Quality / Size Options (6.0)
The Kodak EasyShare DX6490 comes with four image quality settings, which can be found in the onscreen LCD menu. Best image shoots at 4.0 MP, for prints ranging in size up to 20 x 30 inches, and will have both the highest resolution and the largest file size. Next is Best (3:2) which shoots at 3.5 MP and is meant primarily for printing 4 x 6 prints via the EasyShare Printer system. Better, at 2.1 MP, is intended for 8 x 10 inch pictures with medium resolution and a smaller file size. And finally, Good, at 1.1 MP for 5 x 7, is best used with screen display, email, and Internet; these images will have the lowest resolution and file size.
To control the sharpness of an image in the Kodak EasyShare DX6490, the user must enter the camera into PASM mode; sharpness can only be controlled within this mode. Entering the menu feature, the user must scroll down and highlight the Sharpness menu choice. Then press OK to enter the sharpness subsection and choose between the three settings of sharp, standard and soft. When the proper choice has been highlighted, press the menu button and the user will be returned to regular operation.
Picture Effects Mode (7.0)
The Color/Saturation function is feasibly operational in any still image mode on the Kodak EasyShare DX6490. Once entered in the menu, the user must choose the color mode options, and will then be able to choose between four settings in the submenu.
