nil

Documentation

An image format appropriate for fast displaying.

This should be a cons (TYPE . EXT) where type is the Emacs image-type(var)/image-type(fun) and EXT the appropriate file extension starting with a dot. If nil, the value is determined automatically.

Different formats have different properties, with respect to Emacs loading time, convert creation time and the file-size. In general, uncompressed formats are faster, but may need a fair amount of (temporary) disk space.
