AdobeRGB
This color space is recommended for commercial printing and document
creation by Adobe Systems (US). Its color reproduction range is larger
than sRGB and adequately covers the color reproduction range for
printing. Therefore, color data only reproducible on a printer are not lost
when editing on a computer. Note that using AdobeRGB with unsupported
software causes colors to appear faint.
CCD RAW file
CCD stands for Charge Coupled Device, a semiconductor device that
converts optical information into electrical signals. RAW image data is raw
data recorded from CCD output. This data can be transferred to a
computer, and manipulated into image data with unique settings such as
JPEG and TIFF using supplied software.
CSV format
This data format lists recording fields and separates them with a comma
(,). Generally, character strings are indicated with double quotation marks
in CSV format. Some software include data input and output functions in
CSV format as part of a multipurpose format.
DNG RAW File
DNG (Digital Negative) RAW is a general-purpose RAW file format
designed by Adobe Systems. When images captured in proprietary RAW
formats are converted to DNG format, support and compatibility for the
images increase significantly.
Exif-JPEG format
Exif stands for Exchangeable Image File Format. This image file format is
based on the JPEG image data format, and allows thumbnail images and
image properties to be embedded into the data. Software that does not
support this format processes the image as a regular JPEG image.
Exif-TIFF format
Exif stands for Exchangeable Image File Format. This image file format is
based on the TIFF image data format, and allows thumbnail images and
image properties to be embedded into the data. Software that does not
support this format processes the image as a regular TIFF image.
