- Description
- The X3F file format, also known as the SIGMA X3F Camera RAW File, is a proprietary image format developed by Sigma Corporation for storing raw image data captured by Sigma cameras equipped with the Foveon X3 sensor. Unlike standard JPEGs or TIFFs, X3F files contain unprocessed data from the camera's sensor, offering photographers greater flexibility in image editing.
- MAT (MATLAB Image Format) is an image file format created by MathWorks for storing and sharing MATLAB data and images. It contains data in a binary format, as well as metadata describing the image. MAT files can be used to store images, 3D models, and other types of data.
