IIQ to FTS conversion is the process of transforming a Phase One IIQ raw image file into an FTS image format, producing files compatible with software or devices that accept FTS. This conversion decodes the camera-specific raw sensor data, preserves as much detail and metadata as possible, and re-encodes the image into the FTS container or format for editing, viewing, or archiving.

IIQ files typically use the MIME type image/x-raw and contain uncompressed or minimally compressed raw image data. FTS files often have the MIME type application/octet-stream and are used in specialized imaging workflows with custom codecs supporting faster rendering. The conversion process involves re-encoding image data to the target codec compatible with FTS readers.
The FTS (.FTS) format is commonly used for image. Understanding its characteristics can be helpful when converting to or from other formats like IIQ.
While specific technical details aren't available here, FTS files generally serve the purpose of storing image effectively within their domain.

IIQ files are proprietary raw image files known for high quality and flexibility in post-processing, primarily used by certain camera brands. FTS files, on the other hand, are tailored for optimized storage and faster accessibility in compatible applications. While IIQ focuses on raw image fidelity, FTS emphasizes efficient file handling and speed.
Keep source IIQ files under 250MB each for smooth processing in free tools; use premium services for larger raw files up to 1GB.
To preserve maximum image quality, choose lossless FTS compression and retain original color profile and 16-bit channel depth when available.
For batch conversions, group IIQ files by resolution and color profile to avoid unnecessary reprocessing and speed up the job.
Be aware that some camera-specific metadata or proprietary Phase One processing instructions may not fully translate into FTS; always verify critical metadata after conversion.
