Both formats, briefly
JPGIN
JPG is where photographs end up by default. Its compression discards detail the eye is unlikely to notice, so a camera shot fits in a few hundred kilobytes instead of tens of megabytes. That suits scenes built from gradients and texture. It suits screenshots and line art badly, because the discarded detail shows up as smudging around hard edges. Every re-save loses a little more, so keep an original if you plan to edit the file more than once.
EXROUT
EXR was developed at Industrial Light & Magic for images that hold more range than a screen can display. Pixel values are 16 or 32 bit floating point, so a highlight can be recorded far above white and pulled back later in the grade. One file can also carry many channels at once, such as depth, motion vectors and separate render passes, which is why compositing and CGI pipelines work in it. Convert to PNG or JPG when the frame simply needs to be looked at.
