Convert RMF to RAD

The RMF (Raw Media Format) file extension is primarily associated with Canon's digital cinema cameras. RMF files store uncompressed raw image data, capturing each frame in high detail, which is crucial for post-production flexibility. Introduced with Canon's Cinema EOS line, RMF files are used in professional filmmaking to maintain maximum image quality by preserving the original sensor data. This format supports high dynamic range and color depth, making it ideal for advanced color grading and visual effects.

The RAD file extension, associated with the Radiance software suite, stands for Radiance Scene Description. It is used to describe materials and geometry for lighting simulations and rendering programs. Developed by Greg Ward at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Radiance employs ray tracing and an octree data structure for accurate lighting calculations. RAD files are ASCII text files that must be compiled into an octree before rendering.
