Selecting the optimal record mode
Record modes are divided into 2 main types: RAW and JPEG. RAW records without
reflecting the settings for exposure compensation, white balance, etc. on the images
themselves. JPEG records as images that reflect these settings. JPEG also compresses
images to reduce the file size when recording them. JPEG is divided into
[SHQ]
,
[HQ]
and
[SQ]
types based on the image size (pixel count) or compression rate. The higher the
compression rate, the grainier the image will appear when enlarged during display. A rough
guide for selection is shown below.

Confirming the exposure when it is difficult to view the monitor outdoors
The monitor may be difficult to view and the exposure difficult to confirm when shooting
outdoors.
During live view, press the
INFO
button repeatedly to display the histogram.
The following shows you how to read the histogram display easily.
How to read the histogram

If the graph has many peaks around here, the image will appear
mostly black.
2
If the graph has many peaks around here, the image will appear
mostly white.
