| Description | 🔵 CR2 (Canon camera filetype) is a raw image format that allows users to save an image file in its original raw format. The saved raw files do not have immediate viewing access, like JPG or PNG files. The key feature of this format is that it contains all the information captured by the camera sensor, making it much easier to post-edit any picture. Most importantly, there is no loss of quality even after editing, which can be challenging with JPEG format. |
| Technical details | 🔵 The process of creating a raw image like CR2 format involves processing the image through a raw converter in a wide-gamut internal color space before converting it into a format that is easy to save, print, share, or download. It supports 12 or 14 bits of color and uses lossless compression. CR2 is considered the next generation of CRW, and CR2 formats are based on the TIFF file format. |
