Is there a tool that can determine the file type from containing data?

How do I find out the format of a picture on windows 7? If i right click on the picture and check the properties, it just gives me the dimensions, but not the picture format. Is there any tool to find that out?

If the file extension isn't enough to tell you, then use the method in Is there a tool that can determine the file type from containing data. Usually the extension (.jpg, .png, etc.) should be enough though. — nhinkle, Apr 26 '11 at 06:55

ImageMagick's identify can recognize may image formats, and even present some details about the file.
