RAW Images
A RAW image is raw data output by the image sensor converted to
digital data. It is recorded to the card as is, and you can select the
quality as follows:
1
or
F
.
F
produces RAW images with
smaller file sizes than
1
.
RAW images can be processed using
[
3
1: RAW image processing]
(p.339) and saved as JPEG images. (Just as for
1
, all JPEG size
options are available for
F
.) As the RAW image itself does not
change, you can process the RAW image to create any number of
JPEG images with various processing conditions.
You can use Digital Photo Professional (EOS software) to process
RAW images. You can make various adjustments to images depending
upon how they will be used and can generate JPEG or other types of
images reflecting the effects of those adjustments.
