Sony Raw Format
The great-grandfather of Sony's ARW format.
SRF is the original raw format used by the very first Sony digital cameras, such as the Cyber-shot DSC-F828. It predates both SR2 and ARW. Like its successors, it contains uncompressed sensor data, but it uses older encryption and structure methods that are now largely obsolete.
SRF files are TIFF-based but heavily modified. They contain the raw data from the CCD sensors used in early 2000s Sony cameras.
Replaced by SR2, which was then replaced by ARW.
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.
