it may be superfine (uncompressed) vs. the other sizes. It mentions resolution separate from compression so that's not it.Originally posted by: doma

no, that's not what I meant... on the Canon SD550, you should have a choice in quality between Superfine, Fine, and Normal. I am assuming compression is Normal or Fine modes while Superfine is the uncompressed.Originally posted by: doma

Even using the supplied memory card, you can see how the number of pictures available changes when you switch between these modes. Normal mode would give you the most pics available (since it's compressing the pic a bit to save space).
Honestly though, on my SD400 (5MP), we use Fine (the middle setting) and it's fine for "everyday" use. We always come back from an event without the 512MB card full.
