Originals, thumbnails & AI enhancement: what is the difference?
Original, thumbnail, or AI enhancement?
Original files
Preserve the source file and verify format, dimensions and completeness. A file hash can help verify an unchanged export.
Thumbnails & other copies
Thumbnails are previews; other copies may be compressed or cropped. Enlarging an image does not recover original captured detail.
AI enhancement
AI can generate or alter details. Save enhanced versions separately, label them clearly, and do not present them as recovered originals.
