Recording Pictures in RAW Format

To toggle RAW image quality on or off for a single shot, assign RAW

to the Fn button (P50). If a JPEG option is currently selected for image quality, pressing the Fn button temporarily selects the equivalent JPEG+RAW option. If a JPEG+RAW option is currently selected, pressing

the Fn button temporarily selects the equivalent JPEG option, while if

RAW is selected, pressing the Fn button temporarily selects FINE. Taking a picture or pressing the Fn button again restores the previous setting.

R RAW images record raw, unprocessed data from the camera image sensor. JPEG copies of RAW images can be created using the jRAW CONVERSION option in the playback menu, or RAW images can be viewed on a computer using the RAW File Converter application that is installed with the software on the supplied CD (P90, 92).

RSensitivities of L (100), H (12800), and H (25600) are not available when RAW image quality is on (P48).

R Control lock (P4) disables the RAW button. To enable the RAW button, press MENU/OK until the X icon clears from the display.
