What is a RAF file?

The RAF extension identifies a raw image file generated by Fujifilm digital cameras. It contains unprocessed data directly from the camera's image sensor-typically Fujifilm's proprietary X-Trans CMOS or standard Bayer filter arrays-along with a JPEG preview and Exif metadata. The file structure encapsulates the sensor's exact luminance values and color information before demosaicing or gamma correction is applied. This format allows for extensive post-processing flexibility regarding white balance, exposure, and color grading compared to compressed formats.

How to open a RAF file

To view or edit RAF files, users require software capable of interpreting the specific sensor data mapped in the file header. Fujifilm provides 'Fujifilm X RAW STUDIO' for native processing. Industry-standard applications such as Adobe Lightroom Classic, Capture One, and the open-source RawTherapee support RAF decoding. Microsoft Windows users may need to install the 'Raw Image Extension' package, while macOS Preview possesses built-in support for most RAF iterations via Apple's Core Image framework.
