SRF

The Sony Raw Format (SRF) is a high-quality image file format used by Sony digital cameras. It captures raw image data, preserving details and dynamic range for professional photo editing. SRF files allow photographers to adjust exposure, white balance, and more during post-processing, ensuring optimal image quality and flexibility. Ideal for both amateurs and professionals, SRF captures every nuance of your photography.

PBM

The PBM (Portable Bitmap) format is a simple raster graphics file format designed for black-and-white images. It is part of the Netpbm format family, allowing for easy manipulation and conversion of pixel data. Widely used in image processing applications, PBM files are lightweight, providing efficient storage and fast rendering while maintaining high quality. Ideal for developers and graphic designers seeking a straightforward bitmap solution.
