RAW to GIF
File Converter

The RAW image file format is a generic term for a variety of image formats used by different digital camera manufacturers. RAW files store unprocessed data from the camera's sensor, providing photographers with the ability to manipulate settings like exposure, white balance, and sharpness during post-processing, which can result in higher image quality. Unlike JPEG and other compressed formats, RAW files retain a much broader range of color and luminance values, offering more flexibility for editing but also resulting in larger file sizes.

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is a widely used image file format that supports both animated and static images. It is particularly noted for its ability to display images with transparent backgrounds and is commonly used for web graphics, memes, and simple animations. However, GIF is limited to a 256-color palette, which makes it less suitable for full-color photographs and detailed artwork.
