Can I shoot in RAW format with Nikon compact cameras?

Asked a year ago
Yes, Nikon compact cameras do offer RAW shooting capabilities. RAW format is available in selected Nikon Coolpix and Nikon 1 digital compact cameras. RAW files capture data directly from the camera's image sensor, preserving the highest level of detail and allowing for extensive post-processing adjustments. Shooting in RAW format provides photographers with more flexibility in adjusting exposure, white balance, and other settings during post-production. It also ensures a higher-quality final image, particularly in challenging lighting conditions. Nikon's compact cameras equipped with this feature enable photographers to unleash their creativity and achieve professional-level results even in a compact camera body.
