White Balance Bracketing
White balance bracketing can not be used with NEF (RAW) images. Se lect ing an NEF
(RAW) option for image quality cancels white balance bracketing. White balance for
NEF (RAW) images can be adjusted using Nikon Capture 4 (available separately;
223).
File Names
Photographs are stored as image fi les with names of the form “DSC_nnnn.xxx,” where
nnnn is a four-digit number between 0001 and 9999 as signed automatically in ascend-
ing order by the camera, and xxx is one of the following three letter extensions: “NEF”
for NEF images, “TIF” for TIFF-RGB, “JPG” for JPEG im ag es, and “NDF” for Dust Off
ref photos (
214–215). The NEF and JPEG fi les recorded at a setting of “NEF+JPEG”
have the same fi le names but different extensions. Images recorded at a Color Mode
setting of II (Adobe RGB) (
67) have names that begin with an underbar (e.g.,
“_DSC0001.JPG”). The “DSC” portion of the fi le name can be changed using the File
name option in the shooting menu (
166).
