What is the difference between compressed and uncompressed?
What is the difference between a compressed and an uncompressed file? With compressed files you lose data, and with uncompressed files you don't lose any data.
Is compressed or uncompressed better?
In the simplest terms, uncompressed video recording produces higher-quality images. Compressed video often has issues with slightly off-color gradients and electronically generated backgrounds, which are created during the compression process.
Should RAW photos be compressed or uncompressed?
Uncompressed RAW: Recommended when both high image quality and developing speed are desired. Lossless Compressed RAW: Recommended when you want to record with the same image quality as uncompressed RAW but with a smaller file size.
What is an uncompressed image?
Uncompressed image data is not to be confused with unprocessed, or RAW, image data. RAW data is minimally altered data direct from a camera's image sensor. Uncompressed image data has been processed to create a displayable image, but hasn't been compressed to create a small file.
