Nikon Electronic Format
Nikon's robust raw format, known for exceptional dynamic range preservation.
NEF (Nikon Electronic Format) is the exclusive raw image format for Nikon cameras. Whether you are shooting with a beginner D3000 or a professional Z9, your raw files are NEFs. Nikon is famous for the dynamic range of its sensors, and the NEF format is designed to hold onto every bit of that data. A NEF file acts as a digital negative, storing 12-bit or 14-bit data that allows photographers to recover incredible amounts of detail.
NEF is based on the TIFF file format. It contains the raw sensor data, a JPEG preview, and an 'instruction set' of metadata. This instruction set includes camera settings like White Balance, Picture Control, and Active D-Lighting. Uniquely, Nikon offers three compression modes for NEF: Uncompressed (Pure data), Lossless Compressed (Huffman coding to reduce size with zero quality loss), and Compressed (Visually lossless).
NEF has been Nikon's standard since the dawn of their digital SLRs (D1 in 1999). While the internal structure has evolved to support higher resolutions and new features, the .nef extension has remained constant, providing a sense of stability for Nikon users.
Portable Any Map
A super-class extension for the PBM, PGM, and PPM formats.
PNM (Portable Any Map) is not a distinct file format itself but rather a collective name (and file extension) used to handle files that could be any of the specialized Netpbm formats: PBM (Bitmap), PGM (Graymap), or PPM (Pixmap). A file ending in `.pnm` allows a program to implement a single reader that automatically detects the internal format ('P1' through 'P6') and handles it accordingly.
A `.pnm` file is simply a PBM, PGM, or PPM file renamed. The header magic number (e.g., `P6`) determines the actual content. This abstraction simplifies command-line pipelines, allowing users to pipe `image.pnm` without worrying if the image is black-and-white or full color.
Part of the Netpbm project philosophy to create a unified library for handling raster graphics. It simplifies naming conventions for software that can output any of the subtypes.
