Supported Image Types
The following is a list of image types supported by ImageBrowser.
JPEG
Most cameras use this image type. It compresses at very high ratios, taking advantage
of the characteristics of the human eye. However, because it is an irreversible
compression method (part of the data is lost during compression), if you process and
save an image repeatedly using this method, the image may become rougher.
Exif JPEG is an image type that adds information such as shooting data to a JPEG
image.
RAW
This is a proprietary image type provided by Canon. It allows the output of the image
pixels from a digital camera without any deterioration in the quality of the image.
Some cameras might not support this image type.
PICT
This is the standard image type for Macintosh. This image type is supported by most
Macintosh software.
TIFF
This is a relatively popular image type. It is widely supported by non-Macintosh
programs (such as Windows).
BMP (Windows Bitmap)
This image type comes standard with Windows. Most Windows programs support it.
AVI (.AVI)
Standard Windows movie type. The movie icon appears in ImageBrowser's Browser
Area.
MOV (.MOV)
Movie type. The movie icon appears in ImageBrowser's Browser Area.
