- How much digital camera storage do I need?
-
The amount of storage space depends on what resolution and quality level you save your photos as. When you select the Quality Level or Resolution Mode, you select the type of compression or resolution that your digital camera will use to store the images. Better quality requires less compression and needs more memory card storage space. If you plan to print your digital pictures on paper, select the highest resolution possible, but keep in mind that when you increase the quality setting, you create larger files that might be inappropriately large for e-mailing or web publishing.
