For details on the relationship between the number of recording
pixels and the number of shots that will fit on a card, see “Number
of Shots per Memory Card” (= 189).
●
The file extension for JPEG images is .JPG, and the extension
for RAW images is .CR2. File names of JPEG and RAW images
captured together have the same image number.

Capturing in RAW Format
The camera can capture images in JPEG and RAW format.
JPEG
Images
Processed in the camera for optimal image quality
and compressed to reduce file size. However, the
compression process is irreversible, and images
cannot be restored to their original, unprocessed
state. Image processing may also cause some loss
of image quality.
RAW Images
“Raw” (unprocessed) data, recorded with essentially
no loss of image quality from the camera’s image
processing. The data cannot be used in this state for
viewing on a computer or printing. You must first use
the software (Digital Photo Professional, = 152)
to convert images to ordinary JPEG or TIFF files.
Images can be adjusted with minimal loss of image
quality.
