Convert PEF to JP2

The PEF (Pentax Electronic File) is a raw image file format used by Pentax digital cameras. It contains unprocessed data directly from the camera's image sensor, allowing for greater post-processing flexibility and higher-quality images. Introduced by Pentax, this format retains more image information compared to compressed formats like JPEG, making it popular among professional photographers. PEF files can be opened and edited with various software, including Adobe Photoshop and Pentax's own Digital Camera Utility.

JP2 stands for JPEG 2000, developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. It's a file format designed for high-quality image compression, supporting both lossy and lossless compression. Introduced in the year 2000, JP2 offers superior image quality and efficient storage over the standard JPEG format, making it suitable for medical imaging, digital cinema, and archives requiring high-fidelity imagery. Its advanced features include better handling of color, metadata, and progressive decoding, ensuring it remains a vital tool in professional and technical applications.
