• When [Quality] is set to [RAW] or [RAW & JPEG], image size is fixed to [L:10M].
The image compression rate determines the image quality. As the file size (page 17) of the
uncompressed image will be larger, it is common for a digital camera to compress the
recorded image.

RAW (RAW)
File format: RAW (raw data)
A RAW file is the raw material to be processed on the
computer for professional purposes. The file can be opened
with the “Image Data Converter SR” provided on the CD-
ROM (supplied) (page 119).
• The image size is fixed to [L:10M]. The image size is not
displayed on the LCD monitor.
RAW & JPEG (RAW+)
File format: RAW (raw data) + JPEG
When the shutter button is pressed, a RAW image and a JPEG
image are created at the same time. This is suitable when you
need two image files, a JPEG for viewing, and a RAW for
editing. The size of the JPEG image is fixed to [L:10M] and
the image quality is fixed to [Fine].
Fine (FINE)
File format: JPEG
The image is compressed in the JPEG format when recorded.
The higher the compression rate, the smaller the file size.
This will allow more files to be recorded in one recording
medium, but the image quality will be lower.
Once the image quality is lowered, it cannot be restored on a
computer afterwards. If you plan to process or edit the image
file later, consider the image quality carefully when selecting
the setting.
