z About RAW files
The digital camera receives the image of the subject captured by the CCD (Charge-Coupled Device), which
acts as the film for a normal camera. The RAW format file is the raw data recorded on the CCD yet to go
through any kind of digital processing. A RAW file is different from a more common file format such as
JPEG in that it is the raw material to be processed for professional purposes. You need the "Image Data
Converter SR" software included on the CD-ROM (supplied) in order to open a RAW file recorded on this
camera. With this software, a RAW file 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.
• Recording a RAW format image entails the following limitations.
– The image size is fixed to the largest size (L:10M)
– The RAW file cannot be printed using a DPOF (print) designated printer or a PictBridge compliant
printer.
– Unlike a JPEG image, a RAW image does not go through any basic image processing, so its colors
cannot be accurately reproduced in playback mode or on an instant playback screen. If the data is
correctly recorded, accurate colors can be reproduced on a computer.

is enlarged, the image is enlarged centering around the selected frame.

image recorded last. If you delete the image following the process above, only the displayed image is
deleted.
