- 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.
- YUV video file format is a type of file used to store video data that has been encoded using the YUV color space. The YUV color model represents images by separating the luminance (Y) component from the chrominance (U and V) components. This separation allows for efficient video compression and broadcast transmission because the human eye is more sensitive to luminance details than to color differences. YUV files are often used in video processing and editing applications, as well as in professional broadcasting.
