This is the right format for those photo images which must be
very small files; for example, for web sites or for email. The JPG
file is wonderfully small, often compressed to perhaps only 1/10 of
the size of the original data.
However, this fantastic compression efficiency comes with a high
price. JPG uses lossy compression (lossy meaning "with losses to
quality") .Lossy means that some image quality is lost when the JPG
data is compressed and saved, and this quality can never be
recovered.
