DCR to JP2

Upload a DCR camera RAW file and save it as JP2. The converter uses server-side image processing for quick RAW export to common raster formats.

DCR is a graphic format for bitmap images. DCR, or Kodak RAW Image File, is a Kodak format RAW file. Files of this type are usually used in digital SLR cameras in order to take photographs and at the same time not to compress or adjust the color. The format was developed by Kodak, whose specialization is in the manufacture of photographic equipment. Kodak RAW Image File, like other graphic RAW formats, is primarily designed to store digital images in an uncompressed and unprocessed form. In this case, they can be edited more accurately. They are stored on a computer so that later the photos can be edited more accurately compared to JPEG images. After processing on the computer, the DCR file can be converted to any popular format. Say in JPEG. DCR images are capable of storing data without compression. They do not include default colors and color correction. And this is inherent in a JPEG image. The main advantage in using this RAW format is that you can have better image quality if digital post-processing is performed. To make the details more visible, and the shapes more defined, you need to reduce noise and better balance the white color.

JP2 is a bitmap image format. The JP2 format, i.e. JPEG 2000 image, was developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. The JP2 file can be in the form of a photograph, drawing, digital fax, etc. File type: JPEG 2000 Core Image File. JPEG 2000 is the patent-pending bitmap image format. It has been licensed free of charge, and now it is an international standard (ISO / IEC 15444-1: 2004). Compared to the previous JPEG-1 standard, JPEG 2000 uses a completely different method to compress data (wavelet transform, wavelet transform). This method generally ensures higher image quality. It also gives a more compact file size. The JP2 format has a lot in common with the JPEG format, which is now especially popular. However, it differs in that it uses wavelet transform technology for compression, and discrete cosine transform has found application in JPEG. Using the first technology, you can get a better image, even when the file size is relatively smaller. There are also JP2 files with the extensions .J2K, JPF, MJ2, JPX and JPM. In order to open a file of this format, that is, to edit, use programs such as Mozilla Firefox, Adobe Photoshop, ACD Systems ACDSee, Google Chrome.
