MENU Image-Recording Quality

Four image-recording quality settings are provided. Images recorded in the <>, <>, or

<> mode do not require processing afterward. However, an image recorded in the <> mode will require processing with a personal computer.

Select the image-recording quality.

• While pressing the <> button, turn the <> dial to select the desired image-recording quality.

Then let go of the <> button.

• If you select the <>, <>, or <> JPEG

format, the < > icon will be displayed in the viewfinder’s lower right corner.

Large/Fine

Records an 11-megapixel image with low-compression JPEG. It saves the JPEG image with the highest image quality. Note that due to the large file size, fewer images can be recorded on the CF card.

Large/Normal

Records an 11-megapixel image with high-compression JPEG. It saves the JPEG image with a relatively high image quality while enabling more images to be recorded on the CF card.

Small/Fine

Records an 11-megapixel image with low-compression JPEG after conversion to a 2.7-megapixel image. It maximizes the number of images that can be recorded on the CF card.

RAW

Records the image with lossless compression resulting in about 11 megapixels. Use this mode when you want to use a personal computer to process the image afterward. Due to the large file size, fewer images can be recorded on the CF card.
