- 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.
- Format used for saving large Photoshop documents over 30,000 by 30,000 pixels in size; supports images up to 300,000 by 300,000 pixels; to enable .psb support, check the "Enable Large Document Format" within the File Handling pane of the Photoshop Preferences window
