3 Setting the Image-Recording Quality If you select both RAW and JPEG, the same image will be recorded simultaneously to the card in both RAW and JPEG at the imagerecording qualities that were set. The two images will be recorded with the same file numbers (file extension: .JPG for JPEG and .CR2 for RAW). The image-recording quality icons are as follows: 1 (RAW), 41 (Middle RAW), 61 (Small RAW), JPEG, 7 (Fine), 8 (Normal), 3 (Large), 4 (Middle), 6 (Small). 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, 41, or 61. A 1 image can be processed with [31: RAW image processing] (p.328) and saved as a JPEG image. (41 and 61 images cannot be processed with the camera.) While the RAW image itself does not change, you can process the RAW image according to different conditions to create any number of JPEG images from it. With all RAW images, you can use Digital Photo Professional (provided software, p.456) to make various adjustments and then generate a JPEG, TIFF, etc., image incorporating those adjustments. To display RAW images on a computer, using the provided software is recommended (p.456). Commercially-available software may not be able to display RAW images taken by the camera. For details on commercially-available software, contact the software manufacturer. 118
