Changing the File Format
The recording file format can be switched to
the RAW format before shooting the image.
When shooting in the RAW format, you can
obtain images of the same high quality as
those in uncompressed files.
If the RAW format is selected, the number of
pixels recorded will be fixed at 2592 x 1944.
See RAW Format (p. 159).
It is possible to select the resolution of the
JPEG image contained in the RAW image.
This is useful when displaying enlarged RAW-
format images with the camera, or when
checking either the focus or for camera shake
(p. 67).
Images shot in the JPEG format can also be
changed to the RAW format while they are
displayed right after shooting (p. 34).
