[FFmpeg-user] Output to image file

Hi,

I would like to output some frames of a video to an image file that can 
be read by The GIMP.

I would like the image data to be exactly what was decoded in FFmpeg.

In essence I'd like:

ffmpeg -i input.mxf -ss 10 -vframes 75 -f image2 output%04d.raw

But The GIMP does not read those files.

I would not mind if FFmpeg could convert from YUV to RGB but without 
converting from studio levels to full levels (i.e. I would like black to 
come out to 16 and white to come out as 235).

Can anyone advise me how I can do that, please.
