The Fuji Finepix HS30EXR supports shooting in RAW+JPEG. This is a wonderful change from most ‘superzooms’ which are stuck with JPEG only. However, it took me a bit to find the settings location for turning on shooting in RAW. I hope the following photos will help you locate the setting more quickly than I did the first time

This was far better than fujis pitiful manual, but still not straightforward, especially if like me you did not have the camera from new, and have not seen, or know where to find the set up menu, but thanks to this I could work it out !!!
Hi R,
Thank you for your comment. I am glad the photos helped a little bit, like you I found the manual to be rather pitiful
Enjoy your nice camera!
Best regards,
