Converting Raw Images

Consider this: Two thirds of the image data is missing. For each pixel there is either red, green or blue intensity information. The other two color intensities have to be estimated. That means, if you don't shoot raw, you trust your cameras processor to have the ultimate interpolation - for all time. There is no turning back when when your image is saved only as a jpeg file.

There is continuously new development on demosaicing techniques, giving better results for your digital images. Several users have said it's like having a new camera when they use a raw converter with another decoding procedure.

RawXplorer offers two different conversion options. Canon's SDK options as well as RawXplorer's own decoding and interpolation. You may compare the two different alternatives in preview mode, side by side in multiple preview.
