Microsoft Announces HD Photo, a New Imaging File Format With Advanced Features for Today’s Digital Photographers: Plug-ins for Adobe Photoshop and HD Photo Device Porting Kit to help speed usage and adoption.
Microsoft expects to release finished plug-ins, which will be free of charge, in approximately 60 days. HD Photo offers compression with up to twice the efficiency of JPEG, with fewer damaging artifacts, resulting in higher-quality images that are one-half the file size. In addition, HD Photo offers increased image fidelity, preserving the entire original image content and enabling higher-quality exposure and color adjustments in the image. This new format offers the ability to decode only the information needed for any resolution or region, or the option to manipulate the image as compressed data.
