| Description | The Nikon Electronic Format (NEF) is a proprietary raw image format used by Nikon digital cameras. It is based on the TIFF image format and contains uncompressed, unprocessed data from the camera's sensor. The NEF format provides photographers with the ability to capture high-quality images with greater detail and flexibility. Since NEF files are not compressed or processed, they allow for greater control over image processing during post-production. This makes the NEF format a popular choice for professional photographers who want to maintain the highest level of image quality and flexibility. NEF files can be converted into other image formats such as JPEG or TIFF using software applications such as Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom. This allows for greater compatibility with other software and devices, while still maintaining the benefits of the NEF format. One advantage of the NEF format is its ability to retain a high degree of image detail and color information. This makes it particularly useful for photographers who need to adjust exposure or white balance during post-processing without losing image quality. In summary, the NEF format provides professional photographers with the ability to capture high-quality, uncompressed images with greater flexibility and control during post-processing. While it is a proprietary format specific to Nikon cameras, it can be converted into other formats for greater compatibility with other software and devices. |

| Description | PNG images provide lossless compression, that is why the quality of the picture is nice, but the size of the file is huge. Because of it this file format is used by photographers. PNG may have several layers of transparency and even include short text descriptions which help search engines to examine the file. Although PNG was developed to replace GIF and partly other formats, it doesn’t support animation since it can’t contain several images like GIF. |
