Changing Shooting Settings Image Quality and Size C NEF (RAW)/NEF (RAW)+JPEG Basic To play back NEF (RAW) photographs on devices other than this camera, the files must first be processed to another format. NEF (RAW) photographs can be processed using NEF (RAW) processing (A 140) in the retouch menu. Use JPEG photographs created using the NEF (RAW) processing option in the retouch menu to print photographs from most professional print services, or via direct USB connection to a printer. NEF (RAW) photographs can be viewed on a computer using software, such as Capture NX (available separately; A 156) or ViewNX (supplied), which supports the NEF format. When photographs taken at X are viewed on the camera, only the JPEG image will be displayed. Note that when photographs taken at this setting are deleted, both NEF and JPEG images will be deleted. Install ViewNX from the supplied Software Suite CD. Be sure to update to the latest version of Capture NX. Nikon Message Center automatically checks for updates if an Internet connection is detected at startup. D File Names Photographs are recorded as image files with names of the form "DSC_nnnn.xxx," where nnnn is a four-digit number between 0001 and 9999 assigned automatically in ascending order by the camera, and xxx is one of the following three letter extensions: "NEF" for NEF (RAW) images, "JPG" for JPEG images, or "AVI" for movie files (A 99). Files containing image dust off reference data have the extension ".NDF" (A 127). The NEF and JPEG files recorded at a setting of X have the same file names but different extensions. Small copies created with the small picture option (A 136) in the retouch menu have file names beginning with "SSC_" and ending with the extension ".JPG" (e.g., "SSC_0001.JPG"), while images recorded with the other options (A 129) in the retouch menu have file names beginning with "CSC" (e.g., "CSC_0001.JPG"). Movie files created with the stopmotion movie option (A 99) in the retouch menu have the file names beginning with "ASC_" and ending with the extension ".AVI" (e.g., "ASC_0001.AVI"). Images recorded at a Optimize Image> Custom>Color Mode setting of II (AdobeRGB) (A 102) have names that begin with an underscore (e.g., "_DSC0001.JPG"), however, files containing image dust off reference data have names that begin without an underscore (e.g., "DSC_nnnn") regardless of Color Mode setting. E Image Quality/Size Image quality and size can also be set using the Image quality and Image size options in the shooting menu (A 100). F 11 - F/G Button (A 112) Image quality and size can also be set using the command dial. 51

C
NEF (RAW)/NEF (RAW)+JPEG Basic
To play back NEF (RAW) photographs on devices other than this camera, the files must first be
processed to another format. NEF (RAW) photographs can be processed using
NEF (RAW)
processing
(
A
140) in the retouch menu. Use JPEG photographs created using the
NEF (RAW)
processing
option in the retouch menu to print photographs from most professional print services,
or via direct USB connection to a printer.
NEF (RAW) photographs can be viewed on a computer using software, such as Capture NX (available
separately;
A
156) or ViewNX (supplied), which supports the NEF format. When photographs taken
at
X
are viewed on the camera, only the JPEG image will be displayed. Note that when
photographs taken at this setting are deleted, both NEF and JPEG images will be deleted.
Install ViewNX from the supplied Software Suite CD.
Be sure to update to the latest version of Capture NX. Nikon Message Center automatically checks
for updates if an Internet connection is detected at startup.

File Names
Photographs are recorded as image files with names of the form “DSC_nnnn.xxx,” where
nnnn
is a
four-digit number between 0001 and 9999 assigned automatically in ascending order by the
camera, and
xxx
is one of the following three letter extensions: “NEF” for NEF (RAW) images, “JPG” for
JPEG images, or “AVI” for movie files (
A
99). Files containing image dust off reference data have the
extension “.NDF” (
A
127). The NEF and JPEG files recorded at a setting of
X
have the same file
names but different extensions. Small copies created with the small picture option
(
A
136) in the retouch menu have file names beginning with “SSC_” and ending with the extension
“.JPG” (e.g., “SSC_0001.JPG”), while images recorded with the other options (
A
129) in the retouch
menu have file names beginning with “CSC” (e.g., “CSC_0001.JPG”). Movie files created with the stop-
motion movie option (
A
99) in the retouch menu have the file names beginning with “ASC_” and
ending with the extension ”.AVI” (e.g., ”ASC_0001.AVI”). Images recorded at a
