Camera Resolution Setting

[mousetravel]

Can you change the resolution setting AFTER you take a picture?
I didn't realize I had camera set on small and now my pics are looking kinda bad. I'm pretty sure I can't change it now, but I thought I'd ask some experts what options, if any, I may have.

Sorry, it is too late.

I figured it was too late, but luckily it didn't happen with my Disney pictures. This happened over the weekend at the Beach. The 4x6's are just OK, but I won't be able to have them enlarged.

As a general rule, set your camera to it's highest resolution and NEVER change it. Why capture at a lower resolution? Memory is cheap. The cost of more memory is less than the cost of even a few missed opportunities because your resolution was too low.

I think my daughter was messing with my camera & I didn't know it was set on "small" until I developed pics. They still look great on the camera screen and computer, but when you have them developed, you can see it just doesn't look right. I now know to DOUBLE CHECK my camera before using it. Luckily, we can take weekend trips to the beach which is about 4 hours away. But the pics were so good, it just broke my heart!!

I would have "died" if that happened on our Disney trip!!
