Composite supports OpenEXR 16-bit half float, 32-bit float and integer. This improves import workflow, footage versus composition distinction, and data extracted from the media.
Pixel Type | Depth | Usage |
---|---|---|
Half | 16-bit floating-point number | For regular image data |
Float | 32-bit IEEE-754 floating-point numbers | Used where the range or precision of 16-bit number is not sufficient, for example, depth channel (Z) |
UINT | 32-bit unsigned integers | For discrete pre-pixel data such as object identifiers |
OpenEXR images can contain an arbitrary number and a combination of image channels. For example:
