Good Morning,
I have a question about my D5500. Right after I received my Camera I had watched a fella on Youtube that was all about "RAW". He also had a setup guide on the D5500 so I basically followed his suggestions. I set my Camera on RAW+F. When I go back and check my SDHC card I have basically two pics for the same image. One I can visually see and the other one I can't see but it just state's "NEF" image. I assume the one I can see is JPEG. That's the one I've been using for editing and I don't know how to use the NEF image. I believe I tried to transfer the NEF image to Lightroom or PS and it stated it was the wrong format. Looks like I'm using double the card space for one image.
I'm probably doing something wrong as my Computer skills are around negative one.
Should I keep it on RAW+F or change it to another mode like RAW+N, RAW+B, RAW, FINE, NORM, BASIC?. I do want to be able to edit my pics if needed. I thought I understood what RAW was but maybe not. I can never visually see the copied NEF version of the picture?
Thanks for the assist.
