I was initially wary of this -- why would Canon choose to invent their
own lossless image format, when they could have picked one of the many
existing options, e.g., PNG or TIFF? However, having read up on some
of their reasons (http://www.colorshots.com/cs101e/html/tipps_raw.html),
it actually makes sense...
