C RAW (NRW) Images of This Camera

To print or edit RAW (NRW) images, use JPEG images created from the RAW (NRW) images using RAW (NRW) processing (E15). RAW (NRW) images cannot be printed or edited.

ViewNX 2 (A104) needs to be installed on the computer to be able to view RAW (NRW) images on the computer. Capture NX 2 is also compatible with RAW (NRW) images.

C Image Quality Setting

The image quality can be set in any shooting mode. The setting is also applied to other shooting modes (except E, Fand Nshooting modes and Easy panorama scene mode).

RAW (NRW) images cannot be recorded in the following shooting modes.

-Scene mode

-Special effects mode (except Zoom exposure and Defocus during exposure)

If you change the shooting mode to either of the above shooting modes when a RAW (NRW) image quality has been selected, the image quality will change to Fine or Normal.

Digital zoom cannot be used when Image quality is set to RAW (NRW), RAW (NRW) + Fine or RAW (NRW) + Normal.

The setting may not be changed when using certain settings of other functions.

C Recording of RAW (NRW) and JPEG Images at the Same Time

The RAW (NRW) image and the JPEG image that are recorded at the same time have the same file number but with their own file extensions, “.NRW” and “.JPG” (E103).

When playing back on the camera, only the JPEG image is displayed.

Note that when the JPEG image is deleted by pressing the lbutton, the RAW (NRW) image that was recorded at the same time is also deleted.

C Number of Images That Can Be Saved

The approximate number of images that can be saved can be checked in the monitor when shooting (A26).

Note that due to JPEG compression, the number of images that can be saved may vary greatly depending on the image content, even when using memory cards with the same capacity and the same image quality and image size settings. In addition, the number of images that can be saved may vary depending on the make of the memory card.

If the number of exposures remaining is 10,000 or more, the number of exposures remaining display shows “9999”.
