How to Convert RAW to PNG
Vizua is a free RAW to PNG converter that supports every major camera brand. Our advanced RAW decoder runs entirely in your browser — just drop your files and get lossless PNG images instantly. No software to install, no account required.
PNG uses lossless compression, meaning zero quality is lost during conversion. This makes it the ideal output format when you need pixel-perfect results for printing, graphic design, or compositing work.
Why Choose PNG Over JPG?
JPG uses lossy compression — it discards some image data to achieve smaller file sizes. PNG preserves every pixel exactly as decoded from the RAW file. Choose PNG when quality is more important than file size:
- Print production — no compression artifacts in large prints
- Graphic design — clean edges for compositing and layering
- Archival — lossless preservation of the decoded RAW data
- Further editing — no generation loss if you re-save later
Supported RAW Formats
- CR2 — Canon DSLR cameras (EOS 5D, 6D, 7D, Rebel series)
- NEF — Nikon DSLR and mirrorless (D850, Z6, Z7, Z8, Z9)
- ARW — Sony Alpha cameras (A7 series, A6000 series, RX100)
- DNG — Adobe's universal RAW format, used by some phones and drones
- ORF — Olympus/OM System cameras (OM-1, E-M1, PEN series)
- RAF — Fujifilm cameras (X-T5, X-H2, X100VI, GFX series)
- RW2 — Panasonic Lumix cameras (S5 II, GH6, G9 II)
- PEF — Pentax cameras (K-3 III, K-1 II, KF)
File Size Considerations
PNG files are larger than JPG — typically 3-5x the size. A 24-megapixel RAW file will produce a PNG around 30-50 MB. If you need smaller files for web or email, consider using the RAW to JPG converter instead.
100% Private — No Upload
Your RAW files never leave your device. The advanced RAW decoder runs entirely in your browser — no server, no cloud, no third-party access. You can even disconnect from the internet after loading the page, and the converter will continue to work.
Frequently Asked Questions
What RAW formats does this converter support?
Vizua supports all major RAW formats: CR2 (Canon), NEF (Nikon), ARW (Sony), DNG (Adobe/universal), ORF (Olympus), RAF (Fujifilm), RW2 (Panasonic), and PEF (Pentax).
Why convert RAW to PNG instead of JPG?
PNG is a lossless format — it preserves every pixel of detail without compression artifacts. Choose PNG when you need maximum quality for printing, graphic design, or further editing. Choose JPG when file size matters more.
Does my RAW file get uploaded to a server?
No. Vizua uses advanced browser technology to decode RAW files locally on your device. Your photos never leave your computer.
Does PNG support transparency from RAW files?
RAW files don't contain transparency data, so the converted PNG will have a solid background. However, PNG's lossless compression means no quality is lost in the conversion process.
Can I convert multiple RAW files to PNG at once?
Yes — drop several RAW files (even mixed formats from different cameras) and download each PNG individually or as a ZIP archive.
