ST5 to BMP Conversion: FAQ
What are ST5 files?
The ST5 extension is attached to RAW images shot with the ST-X model of SBIG CCD cameras. The format is also known as Santa Barbara Instruments Astronomical Image and SBIG represents a brand of specialized imaging cameras, mostly used in astronomy, color photometry, medical imaging and a few other scientific and industrial sectors. As part of these niche uses, ST5 images are considered rare and are probably difficult to open using regular image viewers.
What are BMP files?
The BMP or Bitmap file format is a popular raster graphic format, compatible with a wide array of image processing software, both on PC and Mac computers. BMP files store grids of pixels and detailed information concerning color tones and shades, and are highly appreciated for their ability to provide increased quality images. However, due to the lack of any compression algorithm in storing pixel data, BMP images can often be very large in size and thus difficult to store or transfer.
