    Solution

    With your camera, you can resize an image to make the pixel count lower and save it as a new image. Resizing an image is possible only with JPEG L / M / S1 / S2 images.
    IMPORTANT
    JPEG S3 and RAW images cannot be resized.

    How to resize images
    1. Flip out the LCD monitor, then set the power switch to <ON>.
    For the details about how to open the LCD monitor, see How to use the vari-angle LCD monitor of the EOS REBEL T4i/EOS 650D.

    2. Press the <MENU> button to display the menu.



    3. Under the [ ] tab, select [Resize] menu option, and then press the <SET> button. Images will be displayed.






    4. Press the <Cross Keys> to select the image you want to resize.
    By pressing the < > button, you can switch to the index display and select an image.



    5. Press the <SET> button to display the image sizes. Press the <Cross Keys> to select the desired image size, then press the <SET> button.


    NOTE
    The target sizes ( M / S1 / S2 / S3 ) in this window will be smaller than the original size. For example, if the original image size is S1, you can select S2 or S3.

    6. Select [OK] to save the image, and then press the <SET> button.



    7. Note the destination folder and image file number, then select [OK].
    To resize another image, press the <MENU> button to return to the image selection screen, and then repeat steps 4 to 7.



    8. To exit and return to the menu, press the <MENU> button.
