Convert NEF to SR

The NEF file extension stands for Nikon Electronic Format, a proprietary RAW image file format used by Nikon digital cameras. These files capture all image data as seen by the camera sensor, providing greater flexibility for post-processing and higher image quality compared to compressed formats. NEF files are essential for professional photographers and IT specialists in photo editing due to their uncompressed nature, allowing precise adjustments in color, exposure, and detail retention. Nikon introduced this format to enhance image fidelity and editing capabilities, maintaining a pivotal role in digital photography since its inception.

The Sun Raster (SR) file extension, is a raster graphics file format developed by Sun Microsystems for use on their SunOS operating system. This format, which stores black-and-white, grayscale, and color bitmapped data, was widely used in UNIX-based systems and supported by various imaging applications. The Sun Raster format includes a header, an optional color map, and the bitmapped image data. Although it does not support transparency, it remains a simple and widely distributed bitmap format.
