- Description
- An NEF file is a raw photo captured by a Nikon digital camera. It is saved in an uncompressed format that stores data exactly as it was captured by the CCD. NEF files also contain image metadata, which includes the camera ID and the lens that was used.
- The VDA file format, short for Targa Bitmap Image File, is a variant of the TGA file format (Truevision Advanced Raster Graphics Adapter) used for storing digital images. Developed by Truevision Inc., VDA files are raster graphics files that support various color depths, ranging from 1 to 32 bits per pixel, which includes support for alpha channels and compression. This format is designed to be highly flexible and is capable of storing high-quality images used in video editing and animations.
