which one format is best to save picture .bmp or .jpg?

Answer 1

If this is from a digital camera, shooting in RAW is the best, it has pretty much every piece of information.

TIFF (16 bit is preferred-but large) would be your next one down. It is a "lossless" format, meaning you retain all of your data. File size will be large.

PNG is also a great format. It's often overlooked, and PNG can be used on the web. File size is smaller yet it's a lossless format. It also has transparency like GIF.

BMP - I wouldn't use it for photos.

For archiving, take it in RAW and use that as your archive format. A variation of this is DNG. Same as raw but it's a universal RAW format as to RAW itself which is proprietary. Theoretically DNG will be supported longer, but time will tell. If you are forced to shoot in JPEG, then save your original JPEG, converting it to something else is meaningless for the purpose of archiving. BUT have two copies, your original one and the one you've edited or post-processed. Future technology will probably improve and having your original around could prove useful. In addition, your editing skills will probably improve and you'll learn more sophisticated editing techniques, which means your final image will be better BUT only if you have your original to re-do your post-processing.

Answer 2

BMP is for BLACK and WHITE w/ no gradients. JPEG is an industry standard for the WEB or for most PHD cameras. I agree that most would save for JPEG for their archives...but for professionals, TIFFS are often used...as well as the standard Photoshop PSD format. Most of my images are RAW though, and until I know what specific usage my image will be used for, I will only save for that format as needed...for instance: JPEG for Web, TIFF high rez for Print.

Answer 3

The best format to save a picture in is tiff as this is a lossless format, unlike jpeg. I, personally, would never save as a bitmap. If you want to post a picture on the net, or send one as an e-mail attachment convert to a jpeg (retaining your tiff original) and reduce in size.

Answer 4

between the two jpg. once written to bmp you have a harder time redoing the picture colors in photoshop or MCI, etc.
use bmp to send smaller pic volume over the internet.
