Understanding Image File Formats: JPEG, RAW, PNG, GIF, TIFF, and More

What Are Image Formats?

Do you know what are the affection and interesting a boy images from which we always use, share everything? Let's talk about some different image formats, what is the secret behind them, why are they the same, why is one single, why is one PNG, and what kind of images are formed behind them? I am going to tell you everything and try to tell you in simple language.

Types of Image Formats

Proprietary vs. Standard Formats

friends, there are many formats of images. Some are proprietary, some are standard formats, open form formats, and what happens in the phone is a pinpoint reaction due to which that format has been created. For example, some are compressed, some are uncompressed, some are personal images, and the images are for different regions. But if I tell you one, then there are two main formats: raster images and vector images.

Raster vs. Vector Images

Both formats are raster factors, which are visible on computers. You can see them in different formats on the computer; otherwise, you can use these two formats in different applications. But there is a huge difference between these two. The vectors are pixel-based, which means one picture and after that the second picture, after that the second picture below it, such pieces come and then an image is formed. That is a test for maths, and these are generally uncompressed, come in large file sizes. The other ones are vector images.

Vector Images

This is very interesting. You must be aware that these are not pixels, they are not pics. These are actually mathematical calculations from 1.2 inside, that is, Lions Clubs, all these things are mathematical calculations. Actually, it means that after this mathematical calculation, this is a curve of so many degrees inside an image, it starts, whether it is a small image or a very large image, the calculations are mathematical calculations which are the same. So sometimes it happens that if the image is small, you can make it of the same size without any loss in quality.

Raster Images

But this does not happen in raster images. If you stretch such a small image and enlarge it, then its quality is lost. Remember this is a basic thing, friends. Now let's talk about the most popular image format. If this format was not there, friends, then many things would have become very difficult on the web because you share the web page online. When you have to put it on social media, then the most important thing is yes, the size should be small, the quality should be acceptable.

Popular Image Formats

JPEG

This is the quality of this compressed image format, and you know the full form of JPEG: Joint Photography Export Group. Yes, Joint Photography Expert Group. Choose Pages or this point is for photographers where you can share. Quest for Matter and this format. Friends, generally all cameras are used in it as well. That means when you click a photo on your phone, it should be saved in a format which is larger than these. When you shoot in it, you will be able to do it on any platform because you have to see the whole thing.

PNG

PNG has many advantages too. PNG is a form of Portable Network Graphics and it is a closed loop format, means like it is a lottery format. This is lossless format. Second thing, friends, the background etc. in the background, you are not able to transfer it in one, but in PNG there is a transparent background. It is possible to improve this one up the difference. Second thing, friends, PNG format is this but without loss in quality, you can make it smaller in size.

GIF

Now let's talk about the GIF. We talk about you know the reason is clear. See, in which there are not many colors, so there are 256 colors. But the big advantage is the GIF matter, Graphics Interchange Format to wake up from it. In this, friends, you can animate. These are all different layers which are visible one after the other. the size of one layer does not increase much. Otherwise, you can show many layers clearly at the same time, which basically helps you to create unlimited GIFs. Yes, friends, it is used on the web. That is why those zones graphical or animated images of that always no time for a very long time. It did not mean that the public could not use it, but now it has become free due to which it has become very popular in appointment.

TIFF

Friends, the next one is very popular in the printing industry. We do not use it personally, but TIFF file format. Hey, Kavita daughter TRF of f-18 is this format. And basically gas now the information in an image, these colors, etc. are stored, and because of this, the file size of this format is very large. But it is used in printing because the color admission, the total color that is available in it is very high.

RAW

Now there is a file format RAW. Friends, different companies have different RAW formats. Then there are different file formats like CR2, NEF, etc. This is because there are different DSLR companies, different smartphone companies. Now this is the file format, that is why you take a photo from Sense's upper digital camera. The data that Hussain Sir gives is in the RAW format. Everything is in it after compressing it, but if you have non-compressed file data, it is called RAW because of that its file size is very large. The file formats are also different. Nikon camera has different formats. Canon camera has different file formats.
