Changing pixels I don't have the instruction manual and can't figure out how to change the pixels on my camera. I want to get a higher pixel rating. Thank you!!

Press the FUNC/SET button. Use cursor-up/down to move to the lower-left corner. Use cursor-left/right to change the setting. The "L" setting gives you the most pixels (8 megapixels).

Full details are in the "Changing the Recording Pixels" section of the manual (page 68 in my copy). If you need a manual, you can download one at
http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/5/0300000755/01/PSSD1100IS_IXUS80IS_CUG_EN.pdf

THE IMAGE IS DECIDED BY THE MEGA PIXEL CAPACITY OF THE CAMERA. ITS RECOMMENDED TO GO FOR AN HIGHER RATING CAMERA.
REGARDS.
PLZ. DON'T FORGET TO RATE

Press the FUNC/SET button. Use up/down to select the L in the lower-left corner, then use left/right to pick a different resolution. Press FUNC/SET again to put your choice into effect. It's in the manual under "Changing the Recording Pixels".

Follow the instructions in the "Changing Recording Pixels and Compression" section of the advanced guide (page 31 in my copy). If you need the manuals, you may download them from here.

I phoned canon customer service. They said that you must turn the dial around the function set key. It will then change the movie mode from compact to standard ... and then you will be able to change the resolution. When I did it, the resolution went back to 640, which is the resolution on which I had it previously. Well before the compact mode issue.

■ Number of pixels
Select a higher number of pixels for clearer
pictures when printing.
Select a lower number of pixels [ ] (0.3M
EZ) to store more pictures. Fewer pixels also
means it is easier to send pictures by e-mail
or use them on a homepage.

3072 × 2304 pixels
DMC-LS60 only
(6M)
2816 × 2112 pixels
DMC-LS75/DMC-LS70

(2M EZ) 1600 × 1200 pixels

(0.3M EZ) 640 × 480 pixels

on the menu I believe the Panasonic calls it aspect ratio

YES

Many cameras will take pictures at only 72 dpi. Changing the resolution causes the camera to change the size of the picture in terms of pixel dimension (ie 800x600 vs 640x480) but always at 72 dots per inch. A photo editing program like Photoshop can change the resolution to whatever you need.
