Picture Quality / Size Options (6.0)
The DiMAGE X60 stores all still images in JPEG format. There are three image quality settings, which apply different amounts of compression, and four available resolutions. The picture quality and size is set in Submenu 1 of the menu in either still image capture or one of the preset shooting modes. The following image sizes are available in Fine, Standard, and Economy compression: 2560 x 1920, 2048 x 1536, 1600 x 1200, and 640 x 480.
Picture Effects Options (5.5)
The DiMAGE X60 has two color settings in addition to full color shooting: black and white and sepia tone. The color settings are applied before taking an image and are found in the color menu of submenu #3 in the still image menu. Users are locked out of the color menu when using one of the preset shooting modes. There is also an option to take 9 low-resolution images and have them put on a single frame. This feature is accessed by pressing the self-timer/burst button until 9 small squares arranged together appear on the screen.
The DiMAGE X60 also has picture effects that can be applied in playback mode, following capture. Users can copy images and add a cropped portion of another image, framed by a choice of shapes including a thought bubble, heart, and teddy bear, by using the Copy function located in Submenu 1 of the playback menu. Users can also use the Email Copy function in Submenu 2 of the playback menu to make a low-resolution copy of an image for emailing.
