RAW:
File format: RAW
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 + 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.
The JPEG image quality is set to [Fine].
Extra fine:
File format: JPEG
The image is compressed in the JPEG format and recorded using a higher quality than with
[Fine].
Fine:
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.
