SIGMA X3F is the raw file format produced by Sigma cameras that use the Foveon X3 sensor. Unlike a conventional Bayer sensor, Foveon records red, green, and blue at every pixel location in three stacked layers, so an X3F stores three full colour measurements per pixel. This produces exceptionally sharp detail and colour accuracy, and it is also why X3F files are unusually large and demand Sigma-aware software.
The definitive application is Sigma’s SIGMA Photo Pro, which is the only program that fully understands the Foveon layer structure and delivers the intended colour.
Adobe Lightroom and RawTherapee can open many X3F files, though results vary by camera model, and XnView MP is handy for browsing. A common workflow is to develop the X3F in SIGMA Photo Pro, export a TIFF, and finish the edit elsewhere. You can also convert the file with our X3F to JPG tool.

Portable Network Graphics (PNG) is a raster-based file type that compresses images for portability. PNG images can have RGB or RGBA colors and support transparency, which makes them perfect for use in icons, or graphic designs. PNG also supports animations with better transparency (try our GIF to APNG). The benefits of using PNG are Plus, PNG is an open format that uses lossless compression.
Generally, PNG files will open in your operating system’s default image viewer. PNG files are also easily viewable on all web browsers. If you are having trouble opening PNG files, use our PNG to JPG, PNG to WebP, or PNG to BMP converters.
Alternative programs such as GIMP or Adobe Photoshop are useful for opening and editing PNG files. PNG files are a bit larger than other file types, so exercise caution when adding them to a web page. One interesting feature of PNG files is the ability to create transparency in the image, particularly a transparent background.
