DCR to JXL
File Converter

DCR is a raw image file format associated with Kodak digital cameras, designed to store image data as captured directly by the camera’s sensor without any in-camera processing or compression. This format preserves the full range of image information, allowing photographers extensive flexibility in post-production to adjust exposure, color balance, and other parameters for optimal image quality. However, DCR files are larger in size compared to compressed image formats and necessitate the use of specialized software for viewing and editing.

JXL stands for JPEG XL, a next-generation image coding standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). JPEG XL is designed to provide efficient compression for both lossless and lossy image storage, offering high image quality at lower file sizes compared to previous standards. It supports a wide range of features including high dynamic range, wide color gamut, and progressive decoding, making it suitable for use in various applications from web graphics to professional photography. Despite its advantages, as a newer standard, JPEG XL may not yet have widespread support across all platforms and software.
