CRW to PPM

Upload a CRW camera RAW file and save it as PPM. The converter uses server-side image processing for quick RAW export to common raster formats.

CRW is a highly specialized graphic file format developed by the manufacturer of the famous Canon cameras. It is designed to record “raw” images captured by different models of a digital camera Canon. In its characteristics, it is very similar to another proprietary format of this developer - CR2. The main advantage of the CWR format is the preservation of the quality of the digital image as it comes from the camera matrix. The format also contains metadata, namely: conditions for photographing and fixing the image, default image processing settings, camera model.

PPM is an image file format that is included in the Netpbm open source graphics editor. This graphic format is convenient and simple. Other Netpbm formats that have found widespread use are PBM, i.e. Portable Bitmap, as well as PGM, i.e. Portable Graymap. This three graphic formats are sometimes referred to as PNM, i.e. Portable Format Anymap. PGM stores grayscale images. PMP is a collection of color images, which are intermediate files that are used when converting formats not so well known, using Portable Bitmap Utilities. And PPM files are mainly used on UNIX platforms that are based on Intel. These files are categorized as bitmap images. This is a 24-bit color image that has been formatted in text format. Takes every pixel with a number from zero to 65536 for storage. The color of the pixel is determined by the number. Contains data spaces, the height and width of the character, the maximum color values. Portable Pixmap uses an uncompressed low-performance format that can be compared with other bitmap image formats. This explains its rare use in order to store large images.
