Camera RAW requires full image development. This browser engine does not implement it yet.
Nikon NEF needs camera- and file-aware development to produce a rendered WebP image. White balance, exposure, camera colour interpretation and, where applicable, demosaicing determine that rendering. The destination does not retain the original RAW development latitude. No development settings or camera support are implemented yet.
The target can store an alpha channel, but converting an opaque image does not create transparent areas. Removing a background is a separate editing step.
Lossy VP8 and lossless VP8L are different coding modes. Lossless WebP preserves supported 8-bit samples, not higher-precision source values. Encoding options can also change RGB values under fully transparent pixels. WebP permits different encoding modes or container representations. Its format name alone does not promise lossless output, a quality setting or a size reduction. The future engine must choose a supported codec and sample representation; inspect the target’s compression notes below.
The reviewed WebP representation uses 8-bit colour samples. If the source contains higher-precision samples, they must be reduced before encoding, even in a lossless output mode. Rounding, dithering and colour conversion are future engine decisions; lost precision cannot be recovered from this output.

Source and target sample models can differ in precision, channel layout, colour space and transfer function. Lossless compression only preserves the samples actually encoded; a precision reduction or colour conversion can already change them. The future engine defines numeric mapping, orientation and colour conversion; canonical depth facts are listed below where available.
