(compression rate) according to the usage
of the picture.
• When the quality is set to [TIFF] or [RAW],
a JPEG picture with the quality equal to
the Standard [

] is created at the same
time. The JPEG file is also erased if you
erase the associated TIFF/RAW file.
• The maximum resolution (P73) for each
aspect ratio is fixed if you select [RAW].
• You cannot use the digital zoom if you
have selected [RAW].
• Pictures may have a mosaic-like
appearance depending on the subject or
the recording condition.
• The number of recordable pictures
depends on the subject.
• The number of remaining pictures may
not correspond with recorded frames.
• The following functions cannot be used for
pictures recorded in [TIFF] or [RAW].
–Auto bracket
–Burst mode

• Refer to P18 to 20 for the number of
recordable pictures.
• You can process [RAW] format files with
[Photoshop Elements 3] (on the included
CD-ROM). Use your computer to do
processing beyond what this camera is
able.

use software compatible with the LEICA
