BASIC PICTURE SETTINGS
JPEG RESOLUTION
When one of the JPG formats is selected (see next section) image recording
is possible with 4 dierent resolutions (numbers of pixels). This allows you to
adjust the pictures precisely to the intended use or to the available memory
card capacity.
In the menu, select
Resolution
(3.1), and in the submenu the desired setting.
Note:
Raw images (DNG-format) are always recorded with the highest resolution,
regardless of the settings for JPG-images.
FILE FORMAT / COMPRESSION RATE
Two different JPG-compression rates are available:
JPG fine
and
JPG super
fine
. Both can be combined with simultaneous
DNG
(RAW-image data format)
recording.
In the menu, select
Compression
(3.2), and in the submenu the desired set-
ting.
Note:
The remaining number of pictures or recording time indicated on the screen
are an approximation due to the fact that the le size for compressed images
can vary strongly depending on the photographed subject.
WHITE BALANCE
In digital photography, white balance ensures neutral, i.e. natural, reproduc-
tion of color in any light. It is based on the camera being preset to reproduce a
particular color as white. You can choose from several presets, automatic white
balance, two xed manual settings and direct color temperature setting.
Furthermore, you also have the option to fine-tune all settings precisely to the
current photographic conditions and/or your own ideas.
Fixed presets
Press the
WB
button (1.14), and in the menu appearing on the screen, select
either
AWB
for automatic setting, or (for incandescent lighting), (for
outdoor sunlight shots), (for electronic flash lighting), (for outdoor
shots in cloudy conditions), (for outdoor shots of subjects in the shade).
