NEF does not support alpha transparency. Transparent HEIF areas must be flattened onto a background color.
Animated, sequence, or multipage inputs need explicit frame/page handling.
Converting HEIF to NEF decodes the source image and writes a NEF output. Use this route when NEF is a better fit for compatibility, file size, editing, or delivery.
Quality behavior depends on NEF compression: depends.
Choose conversion targets based on NEF compression, transparency, animation, metadata, and compatibility requirements.
Known metadata support: Exif, XMP, item properties, thumbnails, derived images.
Raw converter support depends on camera model.
