Taking Photographs-Image Quality and Size The Raw Compression Menu The following options are available for NEF (RAW) images: Option Description Comp. NEF (Raw) NEF images are compressed, reducing file size by about 40-50% (default) percent with almost no effect on image quality. NEF (Raw) NEF images are not compressed. 1 Highlight Raw compression in the shooting menu ( 158) and press the multi selector to the right. 2 Highlight the desired option and press the multi selector to the right. The shooting menu will be displayed. The selected option takes effect whenever image quality is set to NEF + JPEG Fine, NEF + JPEG Normal, NEF + JPEG Basic, or NEF (Raw). Image Size Image size is measured in pixels. Smaller sizes produce smaller files, making them suited to distribution via e-mail or inclusion in web pages. Conversely, the larger the image, the larger the size at which it can be printed without becoming noticeably "grainy." Choose image size according to the space available on the memory card and the task at hand. Option Size (pixels) Large 2,464 × 1,632 Medium 1,840 × 1,224 * Approximate size when printed at 200 dpi.
