IMAGE QUALITY
Choose a fi le format and compression ratio. Select FINE or NORMAL to record JPEG images, RAW to record RAW images, or
FINE+RAW or NORMAL+RAW to record both JPEG and RAW images. FINE and FINE+RAW use lower JPEG compression ratios
for higher-quality JPEG images, while NORMAL and NORMAL+RAW user higher JPEG compression ratios to increase the num-
ber of images that can be stored.

Control contrast. Choose lower values to increase contrast when shooting indoors or under overcast skies, higher values to
reduce loss of detail in highlights and shadows when photographing high-contrast scenes. Higher values are recommended
for scenes that include both sunlight and deep shade, for such high-contrast subjects as sunlight on water, brightly-lit autumn
leaves, and portraits taken against a blue sky, and for white objects or people wearing white; note, however, that mottling may
appear in pictures taken at higher values.
