NEF to JPE
File Converter

NEF stands for Nikon Electronic Format and is Nikon's proprietary raw image file format. It stores image data exactly as it was captured by the camera’s sensor, preserving the maximum amount of information and allowing for extensive post-processing flexibility in terms of exposure, color balance, and sharpness adjustments.

The "JPE" file extension is a less common extension used for JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) images. JPEG is a widely used image format known for its lossy compression, which significantly reduces file sizes while maintaining a high level of image quality, making it popular for photographs and web images. The "JPE" extension functions the same as the more common ".jpg" or ".jpeg" extensions, and it can be opened and edited with most image viewing and editing software. The reason for the different extensions simply comes down to historical variations and software preferences, and they all represent the same JPEG image format.
