NRW at a glance
NRW
NRW reflects the period when some advanced compact cameras offered raw capture and needed to participate in the same post-processing expectations as larger interchangeable-lens systems.
MOV at a glance
MOV
Apple's QuickTime file format predates and influenced later MP4-family standards, which is why MOV and MP4 feel related even when they serve somewhat different operational roles.
