Convert K25 to APNG (Animated PNG)

The K25 file extension stands for Kodak DC25 Digital Camera Raw Image. It is a proprietary format used by the Kodak DC25 digital camera, introduced in the mid-1990s. K25 files store unprocessed image data directly from the camera's sensor, preserving high image quality and allowing extensive post-processing. This format was pivotal in early digital photography, enabling users to manipulate images without significant quality loss.

Animated Portable Network Graphics (APNG) is an extension of the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format designed to support animated images. Introduced in 2004, APNG allows for animated sequences while retaining backward compatibility with non-animated PNG files. This format is utilized for its lossless compression, making it ideal for web graphics where image quality is paramount. APNG files are widely used for animated icons, logos, and other elements that benefit from high-quality animations without the artifacts common in GIF files. Its concise, efficient structure makes it a preferred choice among developers and designers focused on optimizing web performance.
