INFORMATION

TIFF is the highest quality and Normal is the lowest setting. Choose the setting appropriate for your needs.

The TIFF file format is for professionals and provides the best quality.

However, large file size reduces number of available pictures to take and increases saving time to the memory card.

[Processing!] message is displayed while saving a TIFF file to the memory card. The TIFF file format can't be selected in the Auto mode.

Though the TIFF menu displays in the LCD monitor in Continuous, AEB and AFB shooting mode, but can't be selected.

If you select the TIFF file format, the double self-timer can’t be selected. The digital zoom can't be used when you select the TIFF file format.

This file format complies with the DCF(Design rule for Camera File system).

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): JPEG is the image compression standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. This type of compression is most commonly used for compressing photos and graphics because it can compress the files efficiently without damaging the data.
