Essential Guide to Image Fundamentals

1. Color Depth: 8-Bit vs. 10-Bit Channels

Color depth determines how many distinct shades of color an image can display. Standard 8-bit formats (JPEG, PNG, WebP) provide 256 tonal steps per RGB channel (totaling 16.7 million colors). Modern 10-bit formats (HEIC, AVIF) provide 1,024 steps per channel (over 1.07 billion colors), eliminating color banding across smooth skies and subtle gradient transitions.

2. Spatial Resolution (Megapixels) vs. File Size (Megabytes)

Megapixels indicate the total grid of pixels ($W \times H$), while Megabytes measure the digital storage footprint. Two images with identical 24 Megapixel resolution can have vastly different file sizes: an uncompressed raw photograph may weigh 70 MB, a lossless PNG might be 20 MB, a JPEG around 3 MB, and an optimized AVIF under 1.5 MB.

3. Metadata Tags & Privacy (EXIF / IPTC)

Photos taken on smartphones and DSLRs embed EXIF metadata tags containing camera models, exposure settings, timestamps, and precise GPS location coordinates. Converting images locally through Edita generates clean web-ready files that strip sensitive metadata before public sharing.
