What is a .MEF file?

The file extension .MEF refers to a Mamiya RAW Image file. This type of file is a camera RAW image file that is created by Mamiya digital cameras. A RAW image file means that the file stores the image information exactly as it was captured by the camera's sensor, without any compression or alteration. This is beneficial for photographers because it allows for more control over adjustments like color, exposure, and detail during the editing process.

.MEF files are typically saved directly onto a camera's memory card. After capturing the images, photographers usually transfer these files from the memory card to a computer. This transfer is necessary for more detailed editing, which cannot be done on the camera itself.
