What is CIN file?

The KODAK .CIN file extension stands for Kodak Cineon Bitmap File. It is a proprietary bitmap file format used for storing intermediate images resulting from digital film scans. The CIN file is composed of a header containing metadata about the image, such as gamma and white point, followed by the actual pixel data. The CIN file should not be confused with other digital film formats, such as JPEGs, PNGs, TIFs, and EXRs. [ ⏩ ] CIN file extension

How to convert the file from HSI to CIN?

To successfully convert the HSI file to CIN, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.HSI). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CIN (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than CIN).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. HSI to CIN. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting HSI files to CIN files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension CIN, while before this step we had the HSI file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CIN file, or not.
