What is a NEF file?

As an exclusive Nikon format, NEF (Nikon Electronic Format) contains a raw image with camera sensor metadata. These data include camera data, lens data, sharpness, contrast, white balance, and similar image information, which are stored separately and can be manipulated without affecting the original photo. Another feature of NEF format is that it preserves 12-bit to 14-bit data, which ensures an extraordinary tonal range of an image. NEF files are not compressed, which results in substantial sized files with excellent image quality. If you don’t have access to Nikon proprietary software, you can open and edit NEF files with the following apps Adobe Photoshop, IrfanView, Able RAWer, etc.

The Moving Picture Experts Group introduced HEIC format in 2015. The primary purpose of HEIC files is as their name implies High-Efficiency Image Format/Container to save space with storing images and image sequences in smaller file sizes. HEIC format has an advanced compression algorithm that provides up to 50% smaller image size while maintaining image quality. Also, HEIC images have a 16-bit tonal range that ensures the vibrant color palette. In comparison to other digital image formats, HEIC has a real perspective to become the most popular image format. However, HEIC files are not compatible with most operating systems natively, which creates obstacles on its way to popularity. Some of the operating systems that support HEIC format are Apple iOS 11 and later, Mac High Sierra and later, Google’s Android P, etc.
