Next are a few updates for NPS Nikon Z9 orders:
Today intoPIX, a company located in Belgium, issued a press release revealing that their TicoRAW technology is behind the Nikon Z9 high-efficiency RAW recording. TicoRAW is described as the new RAW:
“Designed by intoPIX, it unleashes image sensor and traditional RAW data-flows thanks to an innovative processing and coding. The full power of the image sensor is preserved while reducing the bandwidth, the storage needs and the transfer time. It offers high image quality and the capability to manage high resolution, high frame rate and high dynamic range workflows.
TicoRAW is the world’s first RAW codec, handling both RAW pictures and RAW videos, that can offer compression efficiency with such low complexity on RAW Bayer and other Color Filter Arrays (CFA) patterns. Tico stands for tiny codec. The technology and associated products are covered by one or more claims of patent, awarding intoPIX’s hard work and innovation.”
Here are some of the benefits of TicoRAW:
