FFF at a glance

FFF

Hasselblad's workflow tooling treated raw capture and high-end processing as parts of one integrated medium-format imaging environment, which is why formats like FFF survive in specialist archives.

ICB at a glance

ICB

The Truevision line grew out of EPICenter-era PC graphics boards, and several board names ended up surviving as filename extensions even when the underlying raster structure stayed close to the wider TGA family.
