This online tool automatically extracts image dimensions and metadata from the RAW file while giving you precise control over JPEG quality, output dimensions, brightness, saturation, and highlight recovery. ## Inputs - **CRW RAW File** (file): Select Canon CRW RAW file - **JPEG Quality (1-100)** (text): Enter JPEG quality (1-100) - **Output Width (optional)** (text): Enter max width in pixels (leave empty to keep original) - **Output Height (optional)** (text): Enter max height in pixels (leave empty to keep original) - **Brightness** (range): Adjust image brightness. 1.0 = default, higher = brighter, lower = darker. - **Saturation** (range): Adjust color saturation. 1.0 = default, higher = more vivid, lower = more muted. - **Highlight Recovery** (range): Recover blown-out highlights. 0 = off, higher = more aggressive recovery. ## When to use - When you need to view or share legacy Canon CRW RAW photos on devices and platforms that do not support RAW formats. - When you want to quickly adjust exposure, color saturation, and blown-out highlights on a RAW image before saving it as a JPEG. - When you need to resize and compress large RAW camera files into web-friendly JPEG images with custom dimensions. ## How it works - Upload your Canon CRW RAW file using the file selector. - Adjust optional parameters such as JPEG quality, output dimensions, brightness, saturation, and highlight recovery levels. - Click convert to process the RAW file, extract its metadata, and download the optimized JPEG image. ## Use cases - Archiving old digital photography portfolios shot on early Canon digital cameras into standard JPEG formats. - Preparing RAW camera shots for quick social media sharing by adjusting brightness and saturation on the fly. - Batch-preparing web-optimized previews of RAW images by reducing their dimensions and adjusting JPEG compression quality. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can I convert RAW formats other than Canon CRW? No, this tool is specifically optimized to process Canon CRW RAW files. ### Will the converted JPEG retain my photo's original metadata? Yes, the converter automatically extracts and preserves image dimensions and metadata from the original RAW file. ### What is the maximum file size supported for upload? You can upload CRW files up to 200 MB in size. ### How does the highlight recovery option work? It reconstructs details in overexposed areas of the RAW image, with higher values applying more aggressive recovery. ### Can I resize the image during the conversion process? Yes, you can specify a custom maximum width and height in pixels to resize the output JPEG. ## Related tools - [Convert ARW to JPEG](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/arw-to-jpg): Convert Sony ARW RAW files to JPEG format.
