About MDC Format

Minolta RD-175 RAW

A multi-sensor raw format from the 90s.

Overview

MDC is the raw format used by the Minolta RD-175, a DSLR released in 1995. The camera was unique because it used *three* separate CCD sensors to create a single image, similar to 3CCD camcorders.

Technical Details

The RD-175 used three 0.38 megapixel sensors. Two sensors captured green and one captured red/blue. The MDC file stores this split data, which must be interpolated to form the final 1.75 megapixel image.

History

One of the first portable DSLRs.

About QOI Format

Quite OK Image Format

Lossless compression that is incredibly fast.

Overview

QOI (Quite OK Image Format) is a modern lossless image format created by Dominic Szablewski in 2021. It was designed to be a simpler, faster alternative to PNG, prioritizing encoding and decoding speed over maximum compression ratio.

Technical Details

The QOI specification fits on a single page of paper. It achieves compression ratios similar to PNG but encodes 20x-50x faster and decodes 3x-4x faster. It uses a simple streaming algorithm with a running array of previously seen colors.

History

Released in 2021 as a reaction to the complexity of formats like PNG and the slowness of their reference implementations. It quickly gained viral popularity in the developer community.
