Facts About HD Photo
HD Photo is a new file format for continuous-tone still images that surpasses the limitations of existing image formats. HD Photo supports a wide range of features including:
- Multiple color formats for display or print
- Fixed or floating point high-dynamic-range image encoding
- Lossless or high-quality lossy compression
- Efficient decoding for multiple resolutions and subregions
- Minimal overhead for format conversion or transformations during decode
HD Photo delivers a lightweight, high performance algorithm with a small memory footprint that enables practical, in-device encoding and decoding. It delivers compression quality comparable with JPEG-2000 and more than twice the quality of JPEG.
