NEF to PBM

Upload a NEF camera RAW file and save it as PBM. The converter uses server-side image processing for quick RAW export to common raster formats.

NEF is a format for original, raw graphic files created by Nikon technology. Accordingly, the developer of the format is also the specified company. The name of the format is an abbreviation for Nikon Electronic Format. At the same time, NEF format files received by Nikon cameras of different models can have a different structure, so compatibility is not guaranteed. Nikon's graphic editors are geared towards supporting specific camera models. When creating a file, the data comes directly from the matrix. NEF files are of good quality and contain metadata, and therefore take up a lot of space.

PBM is a raster image category file format. It is a compact single-bit black and white image. In other words, this is a simple format that allows you to store black and white pictures. It can be easily formatted into text. In this raster image format, if the pixel is a byte of one, it represents black pixels. When it is a byte from zero, it represents white pixels. The format is referred to as the Portable Bitmap Image file type. How can I open this format? To do this, use programs such as Adobe Photoshop CS, some versions of ACD Systems, as well as Newera Graphics Converter Pro, Corel PaintShop Pro X6. The file has 1 bit per pixel. PBM is a type of PPM format. PBM, that is, Portable Bitmap, is part of the Netpbm graphics package along with a couple of other formats: PGM, that is, Portable Graymap; PPM, i.e. Portable Pixelmap. Occasionally, these three formats are combined under the general name PNM (Portable Anymap). These are intermediate files used in conversion processes supported by Portable Bitmap Utilities (these are applications that have open source code). The PBM format is linked in black and white bitmap images. In PGM, grayscale bitmaps. PPM stores color bitmaps.
