How It Works

How to Convert RAF

STEP 1

Click inside the file drop area to upload your RAF file or drag & drop it.

Locate your RAF file on your device—typically used for various purposes. Ensure the file is under 50MB to avoid upload issues. If the upload fails, check your internet connection or try compressing the file first.

STEP 2

Choose the format you want to convert your RAF file to and click 'Convert'.

Choose your desired format based on your needs—different formats suit different purposes, like JPEG for smaller file sizes. The conversion process typically takes a few seconds, depending on file size and server load.

STEP 3

Download your converted file instantly after conversion.

Once the conversion is complete, click the download link to save your converted file. You can then open it in software like a compatible viewer. If the file doesn’t download, ensure your browser allows pop-ups from RunConvert.

STEP 4

You can also send a link to the converted file via email. (Optional)

Enter an email address to receive a secure link to your converted file, which is useful for sharing with clients or accessing later. Links expire after 24 hours for security, and RunConvert ensures your data is protected during transmission.

What is RAF (Fujifilm Raw)?

RAF (Raw Archive Format) is Fujifilm's proprietary raw image format used by Fujifilm digital cameras to store unprocessed sensor data captured by the camera's sensor.

Unlike processed formats like JPEG, RAF files contain minimally processed data directly from the camera sensor, preserving maximum image information for post-processing flexibility.

RAF files typically offer higher bit depth than standard image formats (usually 12-14 bits per channel compared to 8 bits in JPEG), providing more detail in highlights and shadows and greater latitude for adjustments.

How to open RAF?

RAF files can be opened with Fujifilm's own software like Fujifilm X Raw Studio or Fujifilm Raw File Converter.

Professional photo editing software including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom, Capture One, and DxO PhotoLab all support RAF files with regular updates for new camera models.

Free alternatives include RawTherapee, darktable, and GIMP (with RawTherapee plugin), which provide good support for processing RAF files.

RAF is Developed by: Fujifilm Corporation

RAF was Released on: Early 2000s

Benefits of the RAF Format

RAF files preserve the full dynamic range captured by Fujifilm sensors, allowing photographers to recover details in highlights and shadows that might be lost in processed formats.

Working with RAF provides maximum control over white balance, exposure, sharpening, and color adjustments without degrading image quality through multiple edits.

For Fujifilm camera users, RAF files can retain camera-specific features like Film Simulation modes while still allowing for customized processing in compatible software.
