Canon Raw 2 (.cr2)

The CR2 (Canon Raw 2) file extension, developed by Canon Inc., is a digital image format used for capturing high-quality raw data from a camera's sensor. Introduced in 2004 with the Canon EOS-1D Mark II, the CR2 format preserves all the original details and metadata, allowing for extensive post-processing flexibility. It is preferred by professional photographers and IT specialists in image processing for its ability to retain maximum image information, facilitating enhanced editing and manipulation capabilities. The CR2 files are integral to workflows that require precision and detail, making them indispensable in fields like digital photography, imaging technology, and computer graphics.

Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support Type 1 Image (.cals)

The CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) Type 1 Image file format, developed by the United States Department of Defense in the mid-1980s, is a standard for storing raster (bit-mapped) image data, typically black-and-white. It ensures efficient data interchange and retention of orientation metadata. The format supports both uncompressed and compressed (using CCITT Group 4 compression) images. This standard was part of the broader CALS initiative aimed at improving electronic publishing and data management within the federal government.
