ORF

The ORF (Olympus Raw Format) is a proprietary file format used for storing unprocessed images captured by Olympus digital cameras. It preserves the highest image quality, allowing professional photographers to edit and manipulate photos without losing detail. With its rich color depths and flexibility, ORF files are essential for those seeking to achieve superior post-processing results.

PAM

PAM (Portable Arbitrary Map) is a versatile image file format that supports a wide range of color depths and pixel formats, making it ideal for image processing. As an extension of the Netpbm project, it is especially useful in graphics applications and supports both ASCII and binary encodings. PAM files provide high-quality image storage for various visual projects, ensuring flexibility and compatibility across platforms.
