BMP vs WebP: what changes

| Type | Raster (pixels) | Raster (pixels) |
| Compression | Uncompressed | Lossy or lossless |
| Transparency | No | Yes |
| Animation | No | Yes |
BMP is an uncompressed Windows bitmap that stores every pixel raw. That keeps it perfectly lossless but produces very large files — often ten or more times the size of an equivalent PNG.
WebP is a modern raster format from Google that does both lossy and lossless compression, supports transparency and animation, and runs about 25–34% smaller than JPEG at the same visual quality (per Google's own compression study).
WebP supports transparency, though a BMP has none to carry over — the image simply stays fully opaque. At matching quality WebP typically lands about 25–34% smaller than an equivalent JPEG.
When to convert BMP to WebP
Converting BMP to WebP turns a massive uncompressed bitmap into a compact modern web file, with the option of lossless mode if you want to keep every pixel.
Good to know: A few older desktop apps still won't preview WebP, though every current browser will.
