ANEF (RAW) Recording

The NEF (RAW) recording item in the shooting menu controls compression (pg. 67) and bit depth (pg. 68) for NEF (RAW) images.

AJPEG Compression

JPEG images can be compressed for relatively uniform file size or optimal image quality. The JPEG compression option in the shooting menu can

be used to choose the type of compression (pg. 67).

dA NEF (RAW)+JPEG

When photographs taken at NEF (RAW) + JPEG fine, NEF (RAW) + JPEG normal, or NEF (RAW) + JPEG basic are viewed on the camera, only the JPEG image will be displayed. When photographs taken at these settings are deleted, both NEF and JPEG images will be deleted.

A“+NEF (RAW)”

If +NEF (RAW) is selected for Custom Setting f5
(Assign FUNC. button, pg. 320) and image
quality is set to JPEG fine, JPEG normal, or
JPEG basic, an NEF (RAW) copy will be recorded
with the next picture taken after the Fn button is
pressed. “RAW” will be displayed in the control
panel until the picture is taken. To exit without	Fn button
recording an NEF (RAW) copy, press the Fn
button again before taking the picture. This
function can also be assigned to the depth-of-
field preview button (pg. 324) or the AE-L/AF-L
button (pg. 325).
