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.

Common Use Cases

  • Landscape Photography: NX1 users.

Advantages

  • Image Quality

Limitations

  • Discontinued Support

About XBM Format

X BitMap

Images written as C source code.

Overview

XBM (X BitMap) is a unique image format that is actually a valid snippet of C source code. It defines an array of bytes representing a monochrome bitmap. Because it is code, it can be compiled directly into an application binary, which made it the standard for X11 icons and cursors.

Technical Details

An XBM file contains `#define` statements for width and height, and a static array of unsigned chars: `static unsigned char image_bits[] = { 0x00, 0xFF, ... };`. It supports only 1-bit color (black and white). Transparency works by defining a mask.

History

The original format for X Window System bitmaps (X10/X11). Used extensively in the 90s for the early World Wide Web (Mosaic browser) before GIF/JPEG took over.

Common Use Cases

  • Embedded UI: Hardcoding icons into firmware.

Advantages

  • Compilation

Limitations

  • Monochrome
  • Inefficient
