Camera RAW files are the unprocessed sensor data from DSLR and mirrorless cameras — maximum quality, but large files that most platforms, phones, and people cannot open. Converting RAW to JPEG makes your photos shareable without requiring Lightroom or Photoshop.
Common RAW Formats by Camera Brand
| Brand | RAW Format | Typical File Size |
|---|---|---|
| Canon | .CR2, .CR3 | 20–45 MB |
| Nikon | .NEF | 25–50 MB |
| Sony | .ARW | 20–40 MB |
| Fujifilm | .RAF | 20–40 MB |
| Adobe DNG | .DNG | 20–35 MB |

RAW to JPEG Quality Settings
- 95% JPEG: Near-lossless — use for prints and archival quality sharing
- 90% JPEG: Excellent — ideal for social media and client proofing
- 85% JPEG: Very good — web use, smaller file size
- 75–80% JPEG: Acceptable — when file size is critical
RAW Processing Tip
For the very best results from RAW files, use Lightroom, Capture One, or Darktable to apply proper colour grading and exposure adjustment before exporting as JPEG. Online converters apply default RAW processing, which may differ from your camera's intended rendering. However, for quick conversion without software, imgresizr.com produces excellent results.
