JPEG/HEIF Switch (Photo Capture / Creating still images from Shot Marks)
Switches the file format (JPEG / HEIF) for still images captured with [Photo Capture] or [
Create Still Image].
You can view and edit JPEG files in various environments. The HEIF format has high compression efficiency. The camera can record with high image quality and small file sizes in the HEIF format. Depending on the computer or software, you may not be able to view or edit HEIF files. In addition, a HEIF-compatible environment is required to play back still images in the HEIF format. You can enjoy high-quality still images by connecting the camera and the TV via HDMI.
