Converting RAW Images - File Viewer
Utility
Images can be recorded in the RAW format (RAW images) with certain camera
models. RAW images are extremely high-quality images that are not degraded
by compression algorithms when recorded. However, they are not supported by
most image editing programs in their native format, so they must be converted
before use.
Use the File Viewer Utility to convert RAW images.
