When deleting files exposed in SFD Mode, it is not possible to delete files
independently. Instead, all files are deleted.
It is possible to save files in DNG format.
DNG is the RAW image data that is developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated. It
is not possible to develop it on SIGMA Photo Pro, so it is necessary to use the
software that is compatible with DNG files (depending on the specifications, there
might be some software that may not support the DNG files taken by SIGMA dp
Quattro).
It is not possible to record the image data in DNG and JPEG simultaneously.
It is not possible to adjust the White Balance of DNG files.
