- Description
- The CRW file format is a type of raw image file created by Canon digital cameras. It stands for Canon Raw CIFF (Camera Image File Format), which is a proprietary file format developed by Canon for capturing all the image data recorded by the camera's sensor when a photo is taken. Unlike JPEG or other compressed image formats, CRW files contain uncompressed and unprocessed data, offering photographers a higher degree of control over image adjustments such as exposure, white balance, and color corrections during the post-processing.
- The OTB (Nokia Over The Air Bitmap Image) file format is a type of image file developed for use on Nokia mobile devices. These files are specifically optimized for efficient transmission and display on Nokia phones, particularly older models. The OTB format is designed to be compact to facilitate over-the-air (OTA) transmission, which was an essential feature in the era of limited bandwidth and data transfer capabilities. The format supports monochrome graphics, making it suitable for simple images like icons and logos.
