Limits
Starting point: NEF - NEF is Nikon's raw sensor format with unprocessed data and shooting metadata. Needs demosaicing first; exposure stays adjustable until export. Uncompressed files run large; prefer PNG for the same pixels. Export BMP from NEF at matched dimensions; every pixel maps across, so large sources stay large.
