RAW images

You need the “Image Data Converter” software in order to open a RAW image recorded on this camera. With this software, a RAW image can be opened and converted to a common format, such as JPEG or TIFF, and its white balance, color saturation, contrast, etc., can be readjusted.

Notes

You cannot add DPOF (print order) registration to RAW format images.

You cannot use [Auto HDR] and [Picture Effect] with [RAW] and [RAW & JPEG] images.
