Fujifilm RAW
The unique raw format for Fujifilm's X-Trans sensors.
RAF is the raw image format used by Fujifilm cameras. While it serves the same purpose as other raw formats, RAF files from Fuji's X-Series cameras are special because they contain data from the unique 'X-Trans' sensor array. Unlike standard sensors that use a Bayer pattern (2x2 grid), X-Trans uses a complex 6x6 pixel grid to reduce moiré without an optical low-pass filter. This means RAF files require specialized demosaicing algorithms to process correctly, making software choice more critical for Fuji users than for any other brand.
RAF files store the raw sensor data, a JPEG preview, and metadata. Fuji offers 'Uncompressed' and 'Lossless Compressed' options. The Lossless Compressed option is highly efficient, reducing file sizes significantly with no penalty. Because of the X-Trans pattern, RAF files can sometimes exhibit 'worm' artifacts when sharpened aggressively in Adobe Lightroom. This has led many Fuji users to prefer Capture One or Iridient Developer, which handle the X-Trans demosaicing better.
Fuji has used the RAF extension for decades, from their early FinePix DSLRs to the modern GFX medium format monsters. The format gained prominence with the release of the X-Pro1 in 2012, which introduced the X-Trans sensor.
Portable Gray Map
The standard uncompressed grayscale format.
PGM (Portable Gray Map) is the grayscale member of the Netpbm format family. It sits between PBM (1-bit black and white) and PPM (full color). It is designed to store grayscale images where each pixel has a value ranging from black to white, with typical depths of 8-bit (0-255) or 16-bit (0-65535).
Like other Netpbm formats, PGM has two sub-formats: P2 (ASCII) and P5 (Binary). The header defines the dimensions and the maximum gray value (Maxval). In P2, pixel values are written as plain text numbers separated by spaces. In P5, they are raw bytes. It is strictly a single-channel format.
Created by Jef Poskanzer in the late 80s to handle scanned photos that were better than 1-bit bitmaps but didn't need full color. It became a staple in computer vision research and Unix tools.
