HDRI to RAD Conversion: FAQ
What are HDRI files?
SilverFast’s 64-bit HDRi RAW file is a TIFF that preserves a full 16-bit-per-channel RGB scan plus a separate 16-bit infra-red channel, giving 64 bits per pixel. The visible data stays completely unprocessed—no sharpening, gamma, or colour tweaks—while the IR map lets SilverFast’s iSRD (or compatible tools) later remove dust and scratches non-destructively, making it an ideal “digital negative” for archival film workflows.
What are RAD files?
The RAD format is supported by a ray tracing application called Radiance, which contains several tools that support lighting simulation and measuring light levels. RAD files are often used in architectural project to design and evaluate lighting systems. Apart from lighting features, they can also save objects and materials, and they serve as input for OCT files that facilitate the scene rendering.
