What is a CR2 file?
CR2 file is Canon RAW image Version 2 proprietary format introduced in 2004. Raw part of the image format means that these files contain all data from digital camera sensors, including color ratio in RGB space, camera data, lens data, etc. Since CR2 format acts as a digital negative with a lot of information, you can expect that CR2 files are enormous, uncompressed, and high quality. To be able to open the CR2 file, you’ll need Canon proprietary software or Adobe Photoshop, 3Ds Max, etc. Even though images in CR2 format can be easily modified, there is not much else you can do with them. Before sending CR2 files or sharing them on social media, you should convert them to a more compatible format, such as JPG.
What is a ARW file?
ARW file is associated with Sony Alpha Raw image file or ArtStudio project file. As ARW is based on TIFF format as a raw image format that collects all information from the Sony camera sensor, these files are enormous and impossible to send or share before compression to a more usable image format. Even though ARW is acting as a digital negative, there is a way to manipulate it before compression. To open the ARW file, you can use programs such as Microsoft Windows Photos and Windows Live Photo Gallery on Windows OS or Preview for Mac OS. However, you’ll be required to install the Sony Raw Driver to be able to use these programs.
