How to convert RAW to JPEG
RAW files from digital cameras (CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, DNG, and others) contain unprocessed sensor data with the maximum amount of detail captured by the camera. They require specialized software to view and are too large and incompatible for everyday sharing or web use. Converting a RAW file to JPEG applies the necessary demosaicing and tone mapping to produce a universally viewable photo.
BoltConverter processes RAW files in your browser using WebAssembly-based RAW decoding. A range of camera RAW formats are supported. Your files never leave your device during conversion. The output JPEG applies a standard processing profile to produce a well-exposed, color-balanced image from the RAW data.

RAW data is decoded and processed in your browser
WebAssembly decodes the sensor data, applies demosaicing and color correction, and produces a JPEG image on your device with no upload.

Frequently asked questions
Which RAW formats are supported?
Common RAW formats are supported including CR2 and CR3 (Canon), NEF (Nikon), ARW (Sony), DNG (Adobe/universal), and ORF (Olympus). Support varies by format version; older and more obscure formats may not be recognized.
Are my files uploaded to the internet?
No. The RAW decoding runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your camera files never leave your device.
Will the JPEG look like the JPEG preview my camera embeds?
The output JPEG uses a standard processing profile, which may differ from your camera's in-camera processing. It will look similar but may have different color rendering, white balance, or sharpening compared to the embedded preview.
Will I lose the RAW flexibility when converting?
Yes. A JPEG is a processed, compressed image. You lose the ability to adjust exposure, white balance, and other RAW parameters non-destructively. Keep your original RAW files if you might want to re-process them later.
Is there a file size limit?
Because conversion happens in your browser, there is no server-side limit. Modern camera RAW files are typically 20-80 MB and are handled well by modern browsers.
