- Description
- The MEF file format stands for Mamiya RAW Image and is used to store images captured by Mamiya digital cameras, a brand known for its medium format cameras and lenses. Similar to other RAW image formats, MEF files contain all the data captured by the camera's sensor, without any in-camera processing or compression. This allows photographers to have greater control over photo editing, enabling them to adjust exposure, white balance, and other parameters without loss of image quality.
- Created by JBIG (Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group), JBG is a lossless file format that contains both colored and monochrome images. Commonly used to compress fax images, and it has better compression than G3 and G4 compression codecs.
