Cannot find RAW setting on EOS 400D

[MasterChief]

Hi all, first post on the forum, hopefully not my last.

I am a begginner with photography and have invested in a Canon EOS 400D, very impressed so far but!

When I go to set the image quality it for some reason does not show RAW or RAW + JPG. I just cannot find when to get this setting can anyone help very frustrating :bang:

Many thanks.

RAW will only be available in certain modes M, Av, Tv etc..

Welcome to the forums

In Basic Zone modes, the RAW quality modes aren't displayed, just like namllihs says.
See page 158 of the user's manual for details.

Start off with Av mode where you choose the aperture (try a few different aperture settings on the same shot to see the difference it makes) and the camera chooses the shutter speed.

First step to real photography

well second step I suppose - first step was joining here.
