- Description
- The VGA file type, often associated with Windows Bitmap (BMP), is a raster graphics image file format primarily used for storing bitmap digital images. It is characterized by its simplicity and wide compatibility, making it a standard choice for storing high-quality, uncompressed, and lossless images in Microsoft Windows operating systems. VGA files support various color depths, from monochrome to 24-bit true color, allowing for detailed and vibrant image representation. Despite its larger file size compared to compressed formats, the VGA (or BMP) format is favored for its straightforward structure and ease of access without sacrificing image quality.
- A JPG file is an image saved in a compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It is commonly used for storing digital photos and used by most digital cameras to save images. JPG files are among the most common image files along with .PNG, .TIF, and .GIF.
