Epson Raw File (.erf)

The ERF file extension, short for Epson Raw File, is a proprietary format used by Epson digital cameras to store uncompressed, raw image data. Developed by Epson, this format retains all original sensor data, allowing photographers to produce high-quality images with extensive post-processing flexibility. ERF files can be opened and edited using specialized software like Adobe Photoshop and Epson PhotoRAW. Despite their large size, ERF files are favored by professionals for their superior image quality and editing capabilities.

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.
