Setting Processing Options

Your DCS 315 camera features in-camera background image processing. The processing
applies compression, white balance, exposure correction, and (optionally) noise reduction
to TIFF images. The resultant JPEG images are placed in the JPEG folder on the PC Card.

Only those TIFF images that were saved when a JPEG file type was selected will be
processed to JPEG.

You can specify whether the original TIFF image is saved when the JPEG file is created.

You can also specify whether noise reduction is applied during image processing. To do
so, you will need to appropriately set the Noise Reduction property prior to enabling
background image processing. Refer to “Specifying Noise Reduction” on page 3-12.

If background image processing is enabled, the images are placed in a queue and are
processed sequentially in the camera. Processing takes place in the background (when the
camera is not busy with other activities such as writing to the PC Card or processing user
input).

You can also process images using the Kodak Software. Refer to the KODAK
PROFESSIONAL DCS Host Software User’s Manual on the DCS Host Software CD
included with your camera.r

IMPORTANT:

Background image processing requires a great deal of power. Battery life will be
shortened. Consider using an AC adapter when you need to process a group of images.
