ST5 to DIS 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 DIS files?
The DIS extension is associated with the DKB Ray-Tracer, a piece of software originally created by David Kirk Buck and Aaron A. Collins, which served as a predecessor for the POV Ray-Tracer. The latter software has the capacity to generate images from text-based scene descriptions and works on various platforms. Though fairly popular on PC/MS-DOS platforms at its release, the DIS format is now obsolete. It can, however, be viewed and converted to more accessible formats.
