Sony RAW 2
The predecessor to the modern ARW format.
SR2 is an older raw image format used by early Sony digital cameras, particularly the Cyber-shot R1 and early DSLRs before the Alpha branding fully took over with the ARW format. It contains raw sensor data, allowing for the same kind of editing flexibility as modern raw files, but from older sensor technology.
SR2 is a TIFF-based format. It typically stores 12-bit data. The encryption used in SR2 files was a point of contention in the early days of open-source raw decoding.
Sony used SRF, then SR2, and finally settled on ARW. SR2 represents the middle child of this evolution.
Portable Arbitrary Map
The 'universal' bitmap format of the Netpbm toolkit.
PAM (Portable Arbitrary Map) is the newest and most flexible member of the Netpbm format family (which includes PBM, PGM, and PPM). While earlier formats were strictly strictly black/white, grayscale, or RGB, PAM was designed to be generic. It can handle images with any number of channels, including transparency (alpha) channels, which the older formats lacked.
A PAM file starts with a text header defining width, height, maximum component value (depth), and 'TUPLTYPE' (describing what the channels mean, e.g., 'RGB_ALPHA' or 'CMYK'). The data follows as a raw binary stream of tuples. It unifies the parsing logic: instead of writing separate parsers for PBM/PGM/PPM, a program can just implement a PAM parser to handle everything.
Introduced with the Netpbm library updates to solve the 'Alpha Channel Problem'. The older formats (PPM) had no standard way to store transparency, leading to hacky non-standard extensions. PAM standardized this by allowing arbitrary tuple types.
