How RAW Differs from JPG and PNG
RAW is an uncompressed image format that preserves maximum data from the camera sensor, including color, exposure, and details. This allows photographers and designers to perform precise color correction, exposure adjustments, and noise reduction without losing quality.
In contrast, JPG and PNG are compressed formats designed for use and publishing. They take up less storage space, but some information is lost during compression, which limits post-processing capabilities.
Using RAW is especially important if you want to achieve perfect results in editing: white balance, shadows, highlights, details, and colors are preserved in their original form. JPG and PNG are convenient for quick publishing but do not provide the same flexibility in editing.
RAW Formats by Camera
Different camera manufacturers use their own RAW formats. Here is a list of the main formats and the cameras that use them:
- Canon → CR2, CR3
- Fujifilm → RAF
- Olympus → ORF
- Nikon → NEF
- Sony → ARW, SR2 / SRF
- Panasonic (Lumix) → RW2
- Pentax → PEF
Using a RAW format gives you maximum flexibility when editing images, no matter which camera was used to capture the photo.
