NEF (RAW)/RAW+B NEF (RAW) files can be viewed on a computer using Capture NX (available separately; 103) or the supplied PictureProject software. NEF (RAW) photographs can not be printed by most print services or by direct USB connection; use PictureProject or Capture NX to print NEF (RAW) photographs. When photographs taken at RAW+B are viewed on the camera, only the JPEG image will be displayed. When photographs taken at this setting are deleted, both NEF and JPEG images will be deleted. Capture NX ( 103) Capture NX (available separately) automatically checks for updates if an Internet connection is detected at startup. Be sure to update to the latest version before viewing NEF (RAW) files. File Names Photographs are stored as image files with names of the form "DSC_nnnn.xxx," where nnnn is a fourdigit 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 or "JPG" for JPEG images. Files containing Image Dust Off reference data have the extension ".NDF" ( 87). The NEF and JPEG files recorded at a setting of RAW+B have the same file names but different extensions. Small copies created with the small picture option 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 in the retouch menu have file names beginning with "CSC" (e.g., "CSC_0001.JPG"). Images recorded at a Optimize Image > Custom > Color Mode setting of II (AdobeRGB) ( 69) have names that begin with an underscore (e.g., "_DSC0001.JPG"). Image Quality ( 30)/Image Size ( 30) Image quality and size can also be set using the Image quality and Image size options in the shooting menu. 11- /Fn Button ( 77) Image quality and size can also be set using the command dial.
