When Keyshot7 export an avi file, it is so small with perfect quality, such as this avi is only 534Kb.
But when i use GifCam record it to gif format,  why it is larger when converted to Gif format and quality is worrse?


Here are the converted gif files and original avi file:

They're two completely different file types. You can search for the difference in compression in video and still images to learn more, but because of how each frame is compressed, a GIF and an AVI of the same sequence of frames are always going to be comparatively unequal.
