IMPORTANT!
• Actual file size depends on the type of image you
record. This means that the remaining image
capacity noted on the monitor screen may not be
exactly accurate (pages 26, 243).
• It takes longer to store a TIFF (uncompressed)
image than a JPEG (compressed) image.
• When you record a TIFF image, a JPEG format FINE
version of the same image is also stored. The FINE
version is the one that appears on the camera’s
monitor screen when you display the image in the
PLAY mode.
• A TIFF image cannot be resized (page 141), cropped
(page 142), or copied (page 186). All of these
operations must be performed on JPEG images.
• You cannot transfer a TIFF image to a computer using
the bundled Photo Loader application (page 222). Use
the procedure under “Viewing Images on a
Computer” (page 198) instead.
