This viewer supports RAW files from major camera manufacturers:
A RAW file contains minimally processed data from a digital camera's image sensor. Unlike JPEGs, RAW files preserve all the original image data captured by the sensor, giving photographers maximum flexibility for post-processing. Each camera manufacturer has their own RAW format (CR2 for Canon, NEF for Nikon, etc.).
This viewer focuses on metadata and file structure analysis. RAW file image rendering requires complex demosaicing algorithms that are not practical in a browser. For viewing RAW images, use desktop software like Adobe Lightroom, Capture One, or free alternatives like RawTherapee and darktable.
The viewer extracts camera make and model, lens information, exposure settings (aperture, shutter speed, ISO), date/time taken, GPS coordinates (if available), white balance, focus mode, metering mode, and many other metadata fields stored in the file.
Yes, your files are completely secure. All file processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your RAW files are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy for your photos and their embedded metadata including GPS locations.
The viewer can handle RAW files up to 100MB. Modern full-frame cameras often produce RAW files between 25-60MB depending on resolution and compression. Files larger than 100MB may cause performance issues in your browser.
The Hex viewer displays the raw binary content of your file in hexadecimal format alongside its ASCII representation. This is useful for forensic analysis, debugging file corruption, identifying embedded data, or understanding file format structures.
