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.
Truevision TGA (Targa)
The simple, reliable workhorse of video game textures.
TGA (Truevision Graphics Adapter), often called TARGA, is a raster graphics file format created in 1984. It was the first truecolor (24-bit) format for PC cards. Despite its age, it remains incredibly popular in the video game industry and broadcast graphics because it supports an alpha channel (32-bit images) and is extremely simple to parse.
A TGA file starts with an 18-byte header, followed by image identity information, optional color map, and then the pixel data. The pixel data can be raw or RLE compressed. The 32-bit version (RGBA) is particularly valued because the alpha channel is stored as a simple 4th byte per pixel, making it trivial for game engines to use.
Developed by Truevision for their TARGA and AT-Vista boards, which brought broadcast-quality video graphics to the IBM PC. It became the lingua franca of VGA graphics.
