[IMAGE SIZE]

Choose the size and aspect ratio at which still pictures are recorded.

The following options are available in [SPORTS FINDER MODE] and when [1.25X CROP] is selected in [CH HIGH SPEED BURST] mode:

[IMAGE QUALITY]

Choose a file format and compression ratio.

Option	Description
[FINE]	Low compression ratios are used for higher-quality images.
[NORMAL]	Higher compression ratios are used to increase the number of images that can be stored.
[FINE + RAW]	Record both RAW and fine-quality JPEG images.
[NORMAL + RAW]	Record both RAW and normal-quality JPEG images.
[RAW]	Record RAW images only.

[RAW RECORDING]

Choose whether to compress RAW images.

Option	Description
[UNCOMPRESSED]	RAW images are not compressed.
[LOSSLESS COMPRESSED]	RAW images are compressed using a reversible algorithm that reduces file size with no loss of image data. The images can be viewed in Capture One Express Fujifilm, RAW FILE CONVERTER EX powered by SILKYPIX, FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO, or other software that supports “lossless” RAW compression. Quality is the same as [UNCOMPRESSED], but the resulting files are anywhere from about 30 to 90 percent of their uncompressed size.
[COMPRESSED]	RAW images are compressed using a “lossy”, non-reversible algorithm. Quality is about the same as [UNCOMPRESSED], but the resulting files are anywhere from about 25 to 35 percent of their uncompressed size.
