JAGGIES

[Ken Cox]

the other day i bought a used Olympus E20N

and while reading thru the owners manual i came across the following info re camera setting's - PROGRESSIVE SCAN -- PS MODE

Now with all the complaints over the years re jaggies -- there is the possiblity that some camera's are set up improper

PS mode and Quality Settings

• The SHQ, HQ, and SQ settings can be used. (The RAW and TIFF setting cannot be used.)

Note

• The maximum number of sequential shots which can be taken using the burst mode increases to

seven in the PS mode.

• In the PS mode, up to six memory gauge bars are lit. (One memory gauge bar indicates one shot

image in the buffer.) After taking a seventh shot, the memory gauge starts blinking. If the memory

gauge is blinking, you cannot continue shooting.

• Smear can occur when you are taking a picture in a bright place, for example, under a bright sky.

• Colors may be blurred, or jaggies may appear, along angled lines in the shot image.
