Menu item details
RAW:
File format: RAW (Records using the RAW compression format.)
Digital processing is not performed on this file format. Select this format to process images on a
computer for professional purposes.
The image size is fixed to the maximum size. The image size is not displayed on the screen.
RAW & JPEG:
File format: RAW (Records using the RAW compression format.) + JPEG
A RAW image and a JPEG image are created at the same time. This is suitable when you need
2 image files, a JPEG for viewing, and a RAW for editing.
Fine (default setting):
File format: JPEG
The image is compressed in the JPEG format when recorded.
Standard:
File format: JPEG
The image is compressed in the JPEG format when recorded. Since the compression rate of
[Standard] is higher than that of [Fine], the file size of [Standard] is smaller than that of [Fine].
This will allow more files to be recorded on 1 memory card, but the image quality will be lower.
Note
If images are not to be modified using your computer, we recommend that you record
images in JPEG format.
You cannot add DPOF (print order) registration to RAW format images.
