- Description
- The ST5 file type is specifically associated with images captured using SBIG CCD cameras, particularly the ST-X series models. These files contain raw, unprocessed image data directly from the camera's charge-coupled device (CCD), which is sensitive to light. The format is designed to preserve the maximum amount of image information, allowing astronomers and astrophotographers to perform detailed post-processing. The ST5 format is commonly used in astrophotography and astronomical research, where high precision and image fidelity are crucial.
- A DJVU file is a compressed image format developed by AT&T and marketed by LizardTech. It is designed to allow content developers to scan high-resolution color pages of books, magazines, comics, catalogs, etc. and publish them on the web.
