Nokia 5800 Image Compression

0 replies · 3,305 views · Started 28 September 2009

Hello everyone,
i am a newcomer to these forums.

I have just purchased a 5800 and have installed a nokia 16 gb card.

I am also a keen photographer and wish to use the camera as a backup to my DSLR.

I was wondering whether there is any way of improving the apparent native format the phone uses to save my images, either by changing to a TIFF, or by reducing the stadard compression that the camera applies, before it saves the image to the card, in order to obtain higher resolution prints.

I have seen a software elsewhere which claims to offer an Adobe DNG format but that is a leap too far for me

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Regards
