Canon Raw 3 (.cr3)

The CR3 file extension, short for Canon Raw 3, is a digital image file format used by select Canon digital cameras, such as the EOS M50 and EOS R, to store uncompressed or compressed RAW image data. Introduced in 2018, it replaced the older CR2 format and is based on the ISO Base Media File Format, supporting both lossless and lossy compression. CR3 files retain high image quality and detail, making them ideal for professional photo editing in software like Canon Digital Photo Professional and Adobe Lightroom.

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.
