Editing Still Images - Olympus E-3 Instruction Manual

Editing still images

Recorded images can be edited and saved as new images. Available editing functions depend
on the image format (image record mode).
A JPEG file can be printed as is without modification. A RAW file, on the other hand cannot be
printed as is. To print a RAW file, use the RAW edit function to convert the RAW data format to
JPEG.
Editing images recorded in RAW data format
The camera performs image processing (such as white balance and sharpness adjustment) on
images in the RAW data format, then saves the data to a new file in the JPEG format. While
checking recorded images, you can edit them to your liking.
Image processing is performed based on the current camera settings. Change the
camera settings to suit your preferences before editing.
