CR2 Converter

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.

GIF Converter

What is a GIF file?

GIF or Graphical Interchange Format is a bitmap image format that was introduced back in 1987 by CompuServe. Even though GIF supports only 256 colors, it has significant usability on the web because it is portable and compatible with different platforms. GIFs are mostly used on websites for banners, header images, buttons, etc. Because GIF is a lossless format with LZW compression method, the image quality doesn’t deteriorate with reduced image size. Since most web browsers can open GIF files, it is easy enough to view them. However, to edit the GIF file, you’ll need apps such as Corel Draw, Photoshop Illustrator, OmniPage Ultimate, GIMP, etc.
