Tip: Picture Quality

• The camera supports the following picture qualities:

• Normal: JPEG compression is used to reduce file size.
• Fine: Compression is reduced for improved quality. File size in-

creases, reducing number of photos that can be recorded.

• RAW: Raw image data are saved in DNG format; JPEG copies are

also created. The camera displays only the JPEG copy; DNG files
can be viewed and edited on a computer using the supplied
MediaBrowser (Windows only) or commercially-available appli-
cations that support the DNG format.

Note

• Images with the aspect ratio of 3:2/1:1/16:9 are displayed sur-

rounded by a black border in the picture display.

• Picture Quality/Size can be assigned to the ADJ. lever in ADJ

Lever Setting (page 117).

• The Fn buttons can be used to switch file formats if JPEG>RAW is

selected for Fn Button Pair Setting (page 119).

Tip: RAW Images

• Some settings cannot be used, as detailed in the section for the

affected setting.

• Image Settings and Date Imprint options apply only to JPEG

copies and have no effect on the DNG images.

• The number of RAW photographs that can be taken in a single

burst in continuous mode varies with the option selected for

Noise Reduction (page 73). Up to five photographs can be
taken when noise reduction is disabled; when noise reduction is
enabled, this number drops to four.

• The size and quality of the JPEG copies recorded with DNG im-

ages can be selected using the RAW/JPEG Setting option in the
setup menu (page 130).

• The camera displays a JPEG copy only. If RAW only is selected for

RAW/JPEG Setting (page 130), a JPEG file saved in a DNG file is
displayed in the picture display.
