What is the RAW file type?

A .raw file contains unprocessed, uncompressed image data directly from a digital camera's sensor. Unlike JPEG or PNG formats, RAW files preserve all original image information, allowing photographers maximum control over post-processing adjustments like white balance, exposure, and color. These files are typically larger and require specific software for viewing and editing, but offer superior image quality and flexibility.

What is the JPEG file type?

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a widely-used digital image format that efficiently compresses photographs and complex graphics. It reduces file size by selectively discarding visual data that human eyes are less likely to notice. While JPEG compression is "lossy," meaning some quality is sacrificed, it maintains good visual appearance at reasonable file sizes, making it ideal for web images and photo sharing.

Does JPEG support transparency?

JPEG files do not support transparency. The format only handles fully opaque pixels and cannot display partially transparent or completely transparent areas. When saving an image with transparent elements as a JPEG, transparent areas typically convert to solid white or black backgrounds. For images requiring transparency, use PNG or WebP formats instead, as these support alpha channels for transparent and semi-transparent elements.

Do I lose quality when converting to JPEG?

Yes, some quality loss is possible. Framebird decodes your RAW file into pixels and encodes a new JPEG, which is a lossy format. The default quality setting is 90, and even quality 100 does not guarantee an identical image. The JPEG is a rendered image, not an editable RAW original, and source metadata is not copied. Keep your original RAW file for future edits.
