FAQ
NEF to GIF Conversion
What are NEF files?
NEF represents the extension typically associated with RAW images taken with Nikon cameras. Most professional photographers shoot in RAW mode because this allows them to make a series of adjustments during post-processing, including noise removal, white balance or the correction of under/overexposure without reducing the image quality. As opposed to JPEG or other compressed formats, which include predefined values for aspects such as white balance or brightness and color depth, RAW images allow the photographer more freedom in shaping how the final image will actually look.
What are GIF files?
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) files are widely popular due to their ability to store animations and images in a relatively small size. Their compression algorithm implies the use of a limited color range (up to 256 colors), which means GIF files are great for storing static and animated images of a small size — like logos, icons or avatars, especially if you plan to transfer them or upload them online. GIF images, however, are usually not suitable for high-quality image rendering or printing.
