Choosing the File Type to When you use one memory card, you can specify that captured images are be Written to a Card saved to the card as Raw, JPEG, or Raw+JPEG. (With Raw+JPEG, both file types are written to the card.) When you use two cards, you can specify that one card is standby or that captured images are saved to both cards as Raw, JPEG, or Raw+JPEG. When one card is set to standby, no images are written to that card until the other card is full. When the other card is full, subsequently captured images are written to the standby card using the same file type. When neither card is standby, captured images are written to both cards.

Setting up Cards, Folders, and Files
April 29, 2004

File Types
Your camera can save images as Raw or JPEG files.
Raw
(.dcr) files can be opened by KODAK PROFESSIONAL DCS Photo
Desk. Raw images can be thought of as "digital negatives." They preserve all
image information so you can apply the DCS-specific image enhancements
available in DCS Photo Desk.
JPEG
(.jpg) files are smaller and can be opened directly by any image
editing software. You can choose ERI (Extended Range Imaging) JPEG or
Standard JPEG (see
page 6-5
).
NOTE:
Repeated saves of any JPEG image can degrade image quality.
Choosing the File Type to
be Written to a Card
When you use one memory card, you can specify that captured images are
saved to the card as Raw, JPEG, or Raw+JPEG. (With Raw+JPEG, both file
types are written to the card.)
When you use two cards, you can specify that one card is standby or that
captured images are saved to both cards as Raw, JPEG, or Raw+JPEG.
When one card is set to standby, no images are written to that card until the
other card is full. When the other card is full, subsequently captured
images are written to the standby card using the same file type. When
neither card is standby, captured images are written to both cards. (You
can write different file types to two cards, for example, Raw to one card and
JPEG to the other.) You can also choose the JPEG file type (see
page 6-5
).
