RAW & JPEG*: File format: RAW (Records using the RAW compression format.) + JPEG
A RAW image and a JPEG image are created at the same time. This is suitable when you need 2 image files, a JPEG for viewing, and a RAW for editing. JPEG images are recorded in [Fine] image quality.
Fine: File format: JPEG
The image is compressed in the JPEG format when recorded.
Standard (Default setting): File format: JPEG
The image is compressed in the JPEG format when recorded. Since the compression rate of [Standard] is higher than that of [Fine], the file size of [Standard] is smaller than that of [Fine]. This will allow more files to be recorded on 1 memory card, but the image quality will be lower.
