Time will tell. It's easy to design a new format, but it's not so easy to have everyone else adopt it.

JPEG is not dead. Quite the opposite it's pretty much a universal image format.

This topic was also discussed last week on a thread titled "and after JPEG?" The link to it is:

All editors will still have to support it, there's billions of JPEGs out there.

Thank you. Glad to know I'm not alone. It's not that he's wrong (or right) it's just that he's trying to be too cute for words.

He doesn't seem to know the difference between still and video either!

JPEG is not dead for now and there is no way to tell if it will be in the future. Right now it is the universal file and what all professional printing labs use for printing. By the way, sRGB is not dead either.
To make another file for use in cameras I cannot tell how practical it will be. I do not know either if printing labs will be able to print those files.
The only reviews I do not watch are those from this guy.

This is all about smaller file sizes for transmitting video and images over the internet or storing them on limited space portables. ie, phones and tablets.
Question 1, will greater compression affect image quality??
Question 2, will people shooting images on their ipad or iphone care about image quality differences?
Question 3, will camera mfg's adopt the new codecs?

My answer, who cares......
I shoot RAW. External storage is cheap!

I read a similar story recently the mp3 is dead. I dismissed it then read a more detailed story. The reasons for mp3 have changed. My first player had 128 mb storage. Now my phone has 64g so now I can use flac a lossless compression format. No loss off data and still carry plenty. I thought we may be heading the same direction for photo files. Many of the same arguments apply.

Yep. And to put that into perspective, 128 MB = 0.128 GB

Its just mindblowing. We take it for granted. Not long ago I was very envious of my friend with a 6.4 gig hard drive in his pc when I only had a 540mb. 32G or 64 and yes I know Micro SD go out to 1TB!!! And in keeping with that Internet transmission had improved, maybe JPEG could be reviewed for Tiff or something.
