Setting Image Quality
Image quality determines the format in which the image is saved, the
size of the image as it will be displayed on a computer screen, and the
file size of image stored in a memory card. Select the image quality
according to how you plan to use the image data.
Image Format
Images can be saved in either RAW or JPEG format. To open or process
RAW images, you need to install the software on the CD-ROM that
came with your camera. Because they are uncompressed, RAW images
take up a lot of storage space, but are also well suited for image
processing and printing on paper. For more information, see “Opening
RAW Images on Your Computer” on page 36.
