The file sizes for these pictures can be quite big. The have excellent photo quality, but I would recommend storing these files on a remote server or any external hard drive.

I wouldn’t recommend using these files on the web though. They are far to big and will take forever to load.

This article has really helped me clear up some things I could not quite get my head around.

I have always enjoyed photography, and have recently looked into maybe selling some of my photos. I have been getting really positive comments on my photos for years, but have only kept them for personal enjoyment.

So now that I have started to look into more professional photo editing I have had to get my head around the different file types. I had previously only edited JPEG, but I am now using RAW more.

This has been a great help thanks.

Do you know much about TIFF files, as they seem to be used widely in the photography world too?

Thankyou,

Brad

I have never had the different extensions graphics explained. You made it very clear! Thank you. Also, you used the terms lossy/loseless. Could you please explain those for me? And what are the benefits or disadvantages are of each?
as I investigate you site further. You have it very well laid out. It loads quickly to be so full of information. You would think it would bog down! Ha!
