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
: RAW image processing]
(
=
325) 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.
