Examples

1. Quick Web Preview of Fujifilm Landscape Photo

Landscape Photographer
Background
A photographer shot a series of landscapes on a Fujifilm X-T4 in RAF format and needs to quickly share a lossless preview on a web forum.
Problem
RAF files are too large and unsupported by web browsers, requiring conversion to PNG with slight brightness adjustments.
How to Use
Upload the RAF file, set the brightness to 1.2 to lift the shadows, set the compression level to 7, and convert.
Example Config
Compression Level: 7, Brightness: 1.2
Outcome
A high-quality, slightly brightened PNG file ready for web upload.

2. Downsizing RAF Portrait for Client Review

Portrait Photographer
Background
A photographer needs to send a quick, smaller-sized proof of a portrait session shot in RAF format to a client.
Problem
The original RAF file is too large to email and cannot be opened by the client.
How to Use
Upload the RAF file, set the output width to 1920 pixels, set highlight recovery to 3 to fix bright background spots, and convert.
Example Config
Width: 1920, Highlight Recovery: 3
Outcome
A resized PNG image with recovered highlights, perfect for emailing to the client.
