Readable files ImageBrowser can read the following file formats. sJPEG files Most digital cameras use this file format. It takes advantage of the characteristics of the human eyes to achieve a high compression rate. However, because it is an irreversible compression method (part of the data is lost during compression), if you process and save an image repeatedly using this method, the image may become rougher. sRAW files This format is a proprietary file format provided by Canon. It allows the output of the image pixels from a digital camera without any deterioration in the quality of the image. Some cameras might not support this file format. sPICT files This is the standard file format for Macintosh. This file format is supported by most Macintosh software. sTIFF files This is a relatively popular format. It is widely supported by non-Macintosh programs (such as Windows). sWindows Bitmap files This format is standard on Windows. Most Windows programs support it. sQuickTime files This is a movie file format. The file appears as a movie mark in the Browser Area of ImageBrowser. When you click the movie mark or a thumbnail, QuickTime Player starts and plays the movie. (You must install QuickTime Player before you can use it.) 64 ImageBrowser Software Guide
