Frequently Asked Questions

What is AVIF?

AVIF, or AV1 Image File Format, is a state-of-the-art image format developed by the Alliance for Open Media. It leverages the AV1 video codec to offer highly efficient compression, supporting both lossy and lossless modes. AVIF provides high-quality images with significantly reduced file sizes compared to traditional formats like JPEG and PNG, making it especially beneficial for web usage and high-resolution photography.

AVIF is distinguished by its support for HDR (High Dynamic Range), which enhances the color depth and contrast of images, resulting in more vivid and dynamic visuals. The format also supports transparency and a wide color gamut, catering to a wide range of image types from simple graphics to detailed photographs. As a newer format, AVIF is rapidly gaining acceptance due to its superior compression efficiency and excellent image quality, with increasing support from modern web browsers and image processing software.

What is GIF?

GIF, which stands for Graphics Interchange Format, is a popular image format known for its ability to display both static and animated images. Developed by CompuServe in 1987, GIF uses LZW (Lempel-Ziv-Welch) compression, a lossless method that reduces file size without compromising image quality. This format is particularly well-suited for images with solid colors and simple designs due to its limitation to a 256-color palette.

One of the key features of GIFs is their support for animation, allowing multiple images to be combined into a single file and displayed sequentially to create motion. Additionally, GIFs support transparency, which makes them ideal for overlaying images on different backgrounds. Despite their limited color range, GIFs remain a popular choice for web graphics, memes, and short animations because of their simplicity and broad compatibility across various platforms and devices.
