• Monochrome

For black-and-white images.

To obtain natural-looking, black-and-white images, set a suitable white balance.

JPEG black-and-white images captured with the [Monochrome] setting cannot be converted into color images even with image- editing software.

RAW images captured with the [Monochrome] setting can be converted into color images with the bundled software.

• User Defined 1-3

You can register your own Picture Style settings (p.58). Any User Defined Picture Style which has not been set will have the same settings as the Standard Picture Style.
