Image for RAW file processing

RAW file processing

RAW file processing refers to handling digital images captured in a RAW format, which retains all the data from a camera's sensor without compression. This allows for greater editing flexibility, as adjustments to exposure, color, and contrast can be made without losing image quality. The processing typically involves using software to convert RAW files into more common formats like JPEG or TIFF, where edits are rendered and saved. This process is essential for photographers who want to enhance their images while preserving as much detail and clarity as possible.
