NEF to PPM Conversion: FAQ

What are NEF files?

NEF represents the extension typically associated with RAW images taken with Nikon cameras. Most professional photographers shoot in RAW mode because this allows them to make a series of adjustments during post-processing, including noise removal, white balance or the correction of under/overexposure without reducing the image quality. As opposed to JPEG or other compressed formats, which include predefined values for aspects such as white balance or brightness and color depth, RAW images allow the photographer more freedom in shaping how the final image will actually look.

What are PPM files?

PPM or Portable Pixelmap files are image files included in Netpbm, an open source graphics program. The other widely used Netpbm formats are PGM (Portable Graymap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap). All three are image formats and are sometimes called collectively PNMs (Portable Anymap format). While PGMs contains grayscale images, PPMs include color images and they represent intermediary files used in the conversion of less known formats using the Portable Bitmap Utilities. PPM files are mostly operated on UNIX and Intel-based platforms.
