NEF (RAW)
The option selected for image size does not affect the size of NEF (RAW)
images. NEF (RAW) images can be viewed on the camera or using soft-
ware such as Capture NX2 (available separately; 0 172) or ViewNX 2
(supplied).

File Names
Photos and movies are stored as image files with names of the form
“xxx_nnnn.yyy,” where:
xxx is either NMS (Motion Snapshots recorded with NMS files
selected for File format; 0 129) or DSC (photos, MOV-format Motion
Snapshots, and movies, including copies created with Edit movie;
0 117),
nnnn a four-digit number between 0001 and 9999 assigned automat-
ically in ascending order by the camera, and
yyy one of the following three letter extensions: “NEF” for NEF (RAW)
images, “JPG” for JPEG images, or “MOV” for movies.
Trimmed copies created with Edit movie (0117) have file names
beginning with “DSC”; copies created with the other retouch options in
the playback menu have file names beginning with “CSC” (e.g.,
“CSC_0001.JPG”).

Image Quality and Size
Together, image quality and size determine how much space each pho-
tograph occupies on the memory card. Larger, higher quality images
can be printed at larger sizes but also require more memory, meaning
that fewer such images can be stored on the memory card (0 184).
