Image Size Image size refers to the dimensions of the image, measured in pixels. Pictures taken at smaller sizes require less memory, making them suited to distribution by e-mail or the web. Conversely, the larger the image, the larger the size at which it can be printed or displayed without becoming noticeably "grainy."

More on Photography Viewing RAW (NEF) Images on a Computer RAW (NEF) images can only be viewed using PictureProject (version 1.0.1 or later) or Nikon Capture (available separately). To create a TIFF copy for viewing in other applications, press the shutter-release button while a RAW image is displayed in full-frame playback ( 66). The copy will be saved under a new name with the extension .TIF. Print Size The size of images when printed depends on the printer resolution: the higher the resolution, the smaller the final print size. 34
