Mamiya Electronic Format (.mef)

The Mamiya Electronic Format (MEF) is a raw image file format used by Mamiya digital cameras to store unprocessed and uncompressed image data directly from the camera sensor. Introduced in the mid-2000s, MEF files maintain the original scene's dynamic range and quality, allowing professional photographers extensive post-processing control. These files are typically large due to their uncompressed nature and include vital metadata such as exposure settings and white balance. MEF files are commonly edited using specialized software like Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.

Portable Bitmap (.pbm)

The PBM (Portable Bitmap) file extension, part of the Netpbm project, originated in the late 1980s to facilitate efficient and portable graphics file interchange. Primarily, PBM files are used to store monochrome bitmaps in a simple ASCII text format, ensuring easy compatibility across different systems and platforms. This format supports only black-and-white imagery, making it particularly useful in scenarios where simplicity and minimalism are prioritized, such as in Unix environments for bitmap manipulation and transfer. Its historical significance lies in promoting a standardized approach to bitmap graphics in early computer technology.
