RAW to JPG — turn any camera RAW file into a viewable JPG

A RAW file is not a finished picture. It is the near-untouched readout from your camera's sensor, saved before the camera commits to a colour, a contrast curve, or any compression. Each brand wraps that data in its own wrapper and extension — Canon writes .cr2 and .cr3, Nikon uses .nef, Sony ships .arw, Fujifilm has .raf, Olympus .orf, Panasonic .rw2, and Adobe, Android phones, and DJI drones lean on the open .dng. The reason photographers shoot RAW is latitude: the file holds far more tonal information than a JPG, so highlights and shadows can be pulled back and white balance reset long after the shutter closed.

That same richness is why a RAW file is awkward everywhere outside an editing app. Most web upload fields, email clients, phones, and messaging tools simply do not know how to read a .nef or .arw, so the image shows up as a broken icon or gets rejected outright. JPG is the opposite: it is the one raster format that every browser, phone, printer, and social platform opens without a second thought. Converting RAW to JPG bakes the sensor data into a standard, compressed image that behaves like any normal photo — you can view it, attach it, and share it in seconds.

AnyResizer does this the honest way. It performs a baseline demosaic — reading the sensor grid and rendering it to a viewable image at the camera's as-shot white balance and exposure — then encodes the result as JPG at quality 90 by default. There are no exposure or white-balance sliders here, because this is a conversion, not a RAW development studio. Every decode and encode runs inside your browser through WebAssembly, so nothing is uploaded, and metadata like EXIF and GPS is stripped by default to keep the JPG lean and private.
