bill a. Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 <p>Just a sanity check -- is there any difference in JPEG post-compression quality if I let a D40 do auto-rotation, versus turning it off? The rotation is just a "flag" set, correct? the image is a first generation JPEG with rotation applied, not one that has been saved and then rotated and saved from the original "internal RAW", effectively compressed twice?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Laur Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 <p>No harm done. It's just writing the same bits in a different array, on the fly. Whatever you're losing by having the camera write a JPG on the fly (instead of recording RAW files, and chewing on them after the fact), you're not losing any more of it by having it write those bits in a slightly different configuration. Not to worry!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
