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. |

This extension is characterized a raster graphic format which is recognized by many programs today. In comparison with other bitmap formats, JPEG and GIF, BMP keeps color data for each pixel in the image and doesn't compress images to decrease a file size. That is what makes it perfect file format for printable images. |
