ORF at a glance

ORF

ORF belongs to the long Olympus digital-camera story, especially in the Four Thirds and Micro Four Thirds eras where portability and serious editing often coexisted.

VST at a glance

VST

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.
