- Description
- It is a Panasonic camera (like LX5 and LX7) RAW image format file that is mainly used by professional photographers because it can be easily edited. Many applications can't open RW2 files, so you have to convert them into one of the popular image formats if you need to print the photos.
- A PPM file is a 24-bit color image formatted using a text format. It stores each pixel with a number from 0 to 65536, which specifies the color of the pixel. PPM files also store the image height and width, whitespace data, and the maximum color value.
