40D Changing to RAW mode

[parkamedic]

Hello All,

I am looking to change my 40D from highquality JPEG to RAW but the tutorials i have looked at all show pressing menu->pressing set on the quality button. I have done this however it only shows one line of options with L-L M-M S-S options not the huge list as shown in several tutorials. Being new to this camera I have no idea how to change this if the tutorials are showing a different version of my camera. Anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for your help

Set the camera to M, Av, or Tv on the mode dial - you can't set RAW in the
"point 'n shoot" modes.
