Nikon Electronic Format (NEF) is a RAW file format for containing digital photos taken by Nikon cameras. NEF format contains every detail of the image captured by the camera sensors. It is basically a digital negative of the captured image with no compression and loss of quality. Also, this format stores metadata of the captured images which includes the camera’s model, settings description, lens information, etc. The post processing of the images like adjusting the white balance, hue, sharpness, tone, etc. are never permanent in this format.
