- Description
- The CRW file format is a type of raw image file created by Canon digital cameras. It stands for Canon Raw CIFF (Camera Image File Format), which is a proprietary file format developed by Canon for capturing all the image data recorded by the camera's sensor when a photo is taken. Unlike JPEG or other compressed image formats, CRW files contain uncompressed and unprocessed data, offering photographers a higher degree of control over image adjustments such as exposure, white balance, and color corrections during the post-processing.
- An image file format mainly used in storing cell phone photos and they are saved in the High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF). They store one or more images and the metadata description for each image. Also known as .heif files
