FAQ
CAP to DDS Conversion
What are CAP files?
The CAP format is associated with RAW images taken with a Phase One camera. Phase One is a Danish producer of high-end medium-sized cameras, particularly popular among photography experts and professionals. A CAP file represents a high-resolution photograph, taken without any automatic corrections of colors, white balance or luminosity. CAP images are very large in size and they can be visualized only after going through digital processing using specialized software.
What are DDS files?
DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).
