How It Works

How to Convert SRF

STEP 1

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

Locate your SRF 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 SRF 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 SRF (Sony Raw Format)?

SRF is one of Sony's proprietary raw image formats used by older Sony digital cameras. It stores uncompressed or minimally compressed raw sensor data, preserving all the information captured by the camera's sensor.

SRF files contain the original image data before any processing, providing photographers with maximum flexibility for post-processing adjustments to exposure, white balance, and other parameters.

This format was eventually superseded by Sony's ARW and SR2 formats in newer camera models, but the principle remains the same: maintaining the highest possible image quality and editing flexibility.

How to open SRF?

SRF files can be opened with Sony's proprietary software such as Imaging Edge (formerly Sony Image Data Converter).

Professional photo editing software including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom, and Capture One Pro support the SRF format.

Free alternatives like RawTherapee and darktable can also open SRF files with the proper plugins and updates.

SRF is Developed by: Sony Corporation

SRF was Released on: Early 2000s
