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 TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
