Bitmapvector

Vector and bitmap images differ in their composition and resolution dependence. Bitmap images are composed of pixels and their quality decreases as the image is enlarged, as they are resolution dependent. They work well for photo-realistic images. Vector images are resolution independent and scalable, making them better for logos and illustrations. While bitmap images use common formats like JPG and GIF, vector images are typically saved as EPS or AI files.
