About SRW Format

Samsung RAW

The raw format for Samsung's defunct NX camera line.

Overview

SRW is the proprietary raw format used by Samsung's NX series of mirrorless cameras (like the NX1 and NX500). Although Samsung exited the camera market, the NX1 remains a cult classic for its high-resolution sensor, and SRW files are still relevant for its users.

Technical Details

SRW files are TIFF-based containers holding the raw sensor data. The NX1's SRW files are particularly notable for containing data from a 28MP BSI-APS-C sensor, which was ahead of its time.

History

Introduced with the Samsung GX series (rebadged Pentax) and evolved with the NX series.

About QOI Format

Quite OK Image Format

Lossless compression that is incredibly fast.

Overview

QOI (Quite OK Image Format) is a modern lossless image format created by Dominic Szablewski in 2021. It was designed to be a simpler, faster alternative to PNG, prioritizing encoding and decoding speed over maximum compression ratio.

Technical Details

The QOI specification fits on a single page of paper. It achieves compression ratios similar to PNG but encodes 20x-50x faster and decodes 3x-4x faster. It uses a simple streaming algorithm with a running array of previously seen colors.

History

Released in 2021 as a reaction to the complexity of formats like PNG and the slowness of their reference implementations. It quickly gained viral popularity in the developer community.

Common Use Cases

  • •Game Development: Fast asset loading.
  • •Embedded Systems: Devices with limited CPU power.
