An electronic still camera and a method associated therewith is disclosed, which is useful with a sensor of rectangular pixel geometry. The invention provides dual resolution modes for producing square pixels for display. In one resolution mode, neighboring pairs of pixels are averaged in the direction normal to the major axis of the rectangular pixels within each color plane such that one half as many square pixel RGB triplets are formed as there were original single color rectangular pixels, while in the second resolution mode new RGB triplets are interjected by interpolation in the direction parallel to the major axis of the rectangular pixels such that twice as many square pixel RGB triplets are formed as there were original single color rectangular pixels. A method of compression for stored images is also provided.
