Ricoh GR Digital III Manual Do Utilizador

The camera supports the following picture qualities:
•  Normal: JPEG compression is used to reduce file size.
•  Fine: Compression is reduced for improved quality.  File size in-

creases, reducing number of photos that can be recorded.

•  RAW: Raw image data are saved in DNG format; JPEG copies are 

also created.  The camera displays only the JPEG copy; DNG files 
can be viewed and edited on a computer using the supplied 
Irodio Photo & Video Studio Software (Windows only) or com-
mercially-available applications that support the DNG format.

Unlike normal- and fine-quality images, RAW images are not com-
pressed.  This increases file size but avoids the loss of quality associ-
ated with JPEG compression.  Note the following when shooting 
RAW images:
•  Some settings can not be used, as detailed in the section for the 

affected setting.  Image Settings and Date Imprint options ap-
ply only to JPEG copies and have no effect on the DNG images.

• The size and quality of the JPEG copies recorded with DNG im-

ages can be selected using the RAW/JPEG Setting option in the 
setup menu (page 131).

• The number of RAW photographs that can be taken in a single 

burst in continuous mode varies with the option selected for 
Noise Reduction (page 74).  Up to five photographs can be 
taken when noise reduction is disabled; when noise reduction is 
enabled, this number drops to four.
