Picture Quality / Size Options (7.83)
Where most cameras will let you set different compression levels for your JPEG files, the T700 lacks this control. Available image sizes are:
Picture Effects Mode (3.50)
The T700 has a few effects modes that you can use to play with your images. A number of these are implemented by tapping a point on the image, and altering the area around it. There's Monochrome, which will leech the color out of everywhere but a small circle around a point you select. Fisheye Lens and Radial Blur both morph the image around the selected area, and Retro blurs and dims the periphery. Additionally, there's Cross Filter, which adds a cross shaped flare simulating points of light. On the decidedly creepy side of picture effects is the Happy Faces function. This takes your face, and morphs the edges of your lips into a horrific rictus grin. Every time we tried it, it ended up looking vaguely like Jack Nicholson in the original Batman movie.
Of course, you can't have a touch screen camera without using it to scribble all over your pictures. The T700 lets you draw all over your image with lines of various thickness, or else stick pretty little stamps of dolphins and sparkles on it, presumably to woo the 6-year-old camera buyer. It even has 15 wonderfully bad frames to wrap around the sides of the picture.
