Convert SRF to PCX

The SRF (Sony Raw File) is a RAW image file format used by Sony digital cameras, such as the DSC-F828 model, to store uncompressed, unaltered images captured by the camera's sensor. Introduced in January 2004, SRF files preserve high-quality image data, offering photographers greater flexibility in post-processing compared to compressed formats like JPEG. Over time, Sony developed subsequent formats like SR2 and ARW to enhance features and compression methods.

The PCX file extension, standing for PiCture eXchange, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation in 1985 for its PC Paintbrush software. It became one of the first widely accepted DOS imaging standards, supporting palette-indexed images from 2 to 256 colors and later true-color (24-bit) images. PCX files use RLE (Run-Length Encoding) compression, making them smaller in size. Although largely replaced by formats like BMP, JPEG, and PNG, PCX was pivotal in early computer graphics and is still supported by various image processing software.
