RAW files tend to be 2-3 times larger than JPG files and this can have an impact not only on the space available on your hard drive, but also on your website’s speed. This professional way of shooting enables you to enjoy the best possible quality for your images, get a higher level of details and a higher level of brightness, adjust with ease overexposed or underexposed images, as well as the white balance and other metrics.Ĭonverting RAW to JPG or other popular image format is a necessary step in case you need to send those images to a client via email, post them on social networks or photo sharing sites, upload them to your online portfolio or publish them in a blog post. Whether we’re talking about Nikon’s NEF, Sony’s ARW or Canon’s CRW, shooting in RAW comes with significant benefits.
