Зачем конвертировать SRF в PNG?
SRF is a 14-bit uncompressed RAW format tied to the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 (2004), storing unprocessed sensor data that most image editors cannot open without a RAW decoder. Converting to .PNG gives you a fully processed, lossless image ready for editing, print, or web use. Unlike JPEG, PNG does not degrade on re-save, making it a good intermediate format for further work.
