How the file is put together. Click a line to see its bytes in the Hex view.
Shortcuts: Ctrl + O open, + / - zoom, 0 fit, 1 actual size, R rotate, Esc leaves full screen.
The viewer digs through every directory, maker note and container box to find the largest JPEG the camera embedded - full size on most cameras.
RGB or brightness, with the share of clipped highlights and shadows - plus an optional red overlay on blown areas.
Exposure, lens, focal length, flash, white balance, serial numbers and the shutter count when the camera records it.
Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax and Samsung private tags, with readable names.
Save the embedded JPEG byte for byte, or a rotated PNG. All previews come out at once when there are several.
See the IFDs, boxes and blocks inside the file and jump to their bytes - handy for damaged files.
When the camera or phone saved a location, it is one click away on OpenStreetMap.
Files are read in a background worker on your device. Nothing is uploaded, ever.
Every camera maker has its own RAW format.
Most of them are built on TIFF, which is why the viewer can read them all with one engine.
| Brand | Extensions | Embedded preview |
|---|---|---|
| Canon | .CR3, .CR2, .CRW | Full size on CR2 and CR3 |
| Nikon | .NEF, .NRW | Full size on most bodies |
| Sony | .ARW, .SR2, .SRF | 1616 x 1080 on many bodies, full size on newer ones |
| Fujifilm | .RAF | Full size or 1920 wide, depending on the model |
| Olympus / OM System | .ORF | 3200 x 2400 class preview |
| Panasonic / Leica | .RW2, .RWL, .RAW | 1920 x 1080 class preview |
| Pentax / Ricoh | .PEF, .DNG | Full size |
| Samsung | .SRW | Full size |
| Adobe and phones | .DNG | Depends on the app that wrote it |
Phone photos are usually HEIC or JPG instead - open those in the HEIC Viewer, or turn them into JPG with HEIC to JPG.
A RAW file holds the unprocessed data from the camera's sensor.
Nothing is baked in yet - white balance, sharpening and colour are decided later, in a RAW converter.
That makes RAW files big and flexible, but most apps can not show them directly. To help, cameras store a ready-made JPEG preview inside the file, and that preview is what this viewer shows.
Need a developed image instead of the preview? RAW to Image converts RAW files to JPG, PNG or WebP, and DNG to JPG handles Adobe DNG. More formats live in all file viewers.
Drop the RAW file anywhere on this page or click to browse. The viewer finds the full-size JPEG your camera embedded in the file, shows it with zoom and a histogram, and lists every camera setting.
Nothing is installed and nothing is uploaded.
Canon CR2 and CR3, Nikon NEF and NRW, Sony ARW, SR2 and SRF, Adobe DNG, Fujifilm RAF, Olympus and OM System ORF, Panasonic RW2, Pentax PEF, Samsung SRW, Leica RWL, Hasselblad 3FR and FFF, Phase One IIQ and other TIFF-based RAW files.
Older containers such as Sigma X3F, Minolta MRW and Canon CRW are searched for an embedded preview.
It is the JPEG preview the camera stored inside the RAW file - the same picture you saw on the camera screen, with its picture style and white balance.
The raw sensor data itself has to be developed (demosaiced) by a RAW converter. For that, use RAW to Image or your photo editor.
Each camera decides what it embeds. Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Samsung and most Fujifilm bodies store a full-size JPEG, while many Sony cameras store 1616 x 1080 and some older or compact cameras only a small one.
The viewer always picks the biggest preview in the file and lists the others.
Yes. Save JPG extracts the embedded JPEG byte for byte, so there is no extra quality loss and it is instant.
PNG saves the preview as a lossless PNG with the right rotation, and All previews saves every embedded image at once. To shrink it for the web, try the Image Resizer.
Camera and lens, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, focal length, exposure mode, metering, flash, white balance, date and time, GPS location, serial numbers and the shutter count when the camera records it.
The EXIF tab lists every tag, including the maker notes of Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax and Samsung.
No. The file is read by JavaScript in your browser, in a background worker, and never leaves your device - not even the GPS location or serial numbers inside it.
That keeps unreleased shoots and client work private.
It counts the red, green and blue (or brightness) values of the preview, so you can spot blown highlights and blocked shadows at a glance. The numbers under it give the share of clipped pixels.
The RAW data itself usually holds a bit more highlight detail than the JPEG preview.
