Saving RAW Images
This camera can record images in JPEG and RAW formats.
JPEG
Images
Images are processed in the camera for optimal
image quality and compressed to reduce file size.
However, the compression process is irreversible,
and images cannot be restored to their original,
unprocessed state. Image processing may also
cause some loss of image quality.
RAW Images
The “raw” (unprocessed) data, recorded with
essentially no loss of image quality from the
camera’s image processing. The data cannot be
used in this state for viewing on a computer or
printing. You must first use the software (Digital
Photo Professional) (
=
158) to convert images to
ordinary JPEG or TIFF files. Images can be adjusted
with minimal loss of image quality.
