DPX at a glance

DPX

DPX inherits part of the motion-picture scanning and Kodak/Cineon lineage, then becomes formalized as a SMPTE exchange format for professional moving-image work.

SRW at a glance

SRW

Digital photography fragmented into many manufacturer-specific raw formats because camera makers optimized for their own sensors, metadata, and software ecosystems rather than for one shared public raw standard.
