In order to reduce the size of the image for more storage of pictures in the memory card, images are compressed. However, compression leads to the loss of image quality. In other words, the less you compress the image, the better the image quality, and the less picture you can store in the memory card.

Chapter 6: Adjusting the Camera Settings
Video Out
.
Both NTSC and PAL are TV's broadcast systems. The NTSC system is mainly used in U.S.A., Japan, Canada, Mexico, the Philippines, and Korea. The PAL system is used in the western Europe such as Germany, England, Switzerland, Holland, Italy (except for France) and Australia, Singapore, Thailand and China. As these systems have no compatibility, you cannot watch an NTSC system based TV in an area where a PAL system is used. This camera can switch the video output signal to both an NTSC system and a PAL system so you can watch the images on TV not only in your own country, but around the world.
