-            JPEG is a compressed format, that trades some of the image quality to keep file sizes small. In fact, most cameras save their images in this format unless you specify otherwise. A JPEG image is stored using lossy compression and you can vary the amount of compression. This allows you to choose between lower compression and higher image quality or greater compression and poorer quality. The only reason to choose higher compression is because it creates smaller file so you can store more images, and it's easier to send them by e-mail, or post them on the Web. Most cameras give you two or three choices equivalent to good, better, best although the names vary.

             JPEG 2000 is supported as well. It provides for the same compression ratio the better (smoother) results compared to JPEG. The 2000 version has the option of being lossless if so specified in the settings.

-            PNG is an image format that was developed as a replacement for a number of older, in the 1990's widely used, image file formats. It is a lossless format like TIFF but it is much more compact and saves disk space. Although your camera is unlikely to support PNG, some people like to convert their photographs to PNG as soon as they get them on their computer. Unlike JPEG, PNG images do not lose quality every time you re-encode them after modification. &digikam; fully supports PNG images and the Batch Processing Images Plugin can convert a batch of images from any supported format to PNG in one step. See the <link linkend="using-setup">Configuration</link> section for information about using plugins with &digikam;.

         Many digital cameras support taking of short movie clips. These clips are usually stored in AVI or MP4 format. &digikam; understands these formats and will generate thumbnails for the movie files. However, &digikam; is not a movie editing application and it does not have any built-in movie viewing or editing capabilities. If you double click on a movie file &digikam; you can preview video or choose a viewing application through your desktop settings.
