| Description | JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group, 1992) is the standard for compressed photographs. A .jpg file stores 8 bits per colour channel and discards the detail the eye is least likely to notice, which makes a 24-megapixel photo 5 to 10 MB instead of 70 MB uncompressed. Every camera, phone, browser and editor reads and writes it. | |
| Benefits | Opens everywhere. Small files at good quality. Carries EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata and ICC colour profiles. Rotation and cropping can be done without re-compressing, with the right tool. | |
| Drawbacks | Lossy: quality drops a little with every re-save. No transparency, no layers, 8 bits per channel only. Visible blocking and halos at low quality settings or after many edits. |
