About CR2 to JPG

CR2 to JPG is for Canon shooters who need a quick, shareable copy of a RAW photo. CR2 is the RAW format of Canon DSLRs, and newer Canon bodies such as the EOS R series record CR3, which works here too. Neither format opens in most photo viewers, messaging apps or print services. RAW files from other camera brands have their own converters in Image Converter.

Upload the file and download a JPG. Auto brightness, on by default, lifts dark exposures to an even level; switch it off to keep the exposure exactly as shot. Quality starts at 90, a good level for prints and sharing alike. You don't need Canon's Digital Photo Professional or any other RAW software on the computer or phone you're using.

FAQ

CR2 to JPG: questions and answers

Does CR2 to JPG work with CR3 files?
Yes. CR3, the RAW format of newer Canon cameras, is accepted on this page too and converted the same way. Sony's ARW files go through ARW to JPG instead.
Why does my CR2 to JPG result look different from the camera preview?
The preview on the camera is a JPG made with Canon's own picture style. Developing the RAW data elsewhere can give slightly different colors and contrast.
What does Auto brightness do?
It brightens photos that came out dark, for an even overall exposure. Turn it off when you exposed on purpose for a moody, low-key look.
Can I convert Canon RAW files for free?
Yes, 2 per day with a free account or 2 in total without one, with files up to 50 MB. VIP removes the daily cap and accepts files up to 1 GB.
Are my photos kept after converting CR2 to JPG?
Both the RAW file and the JPG are deleted automatically an hour after the job. Uploads are encrypted, each job runs in its own isolated process, and your pictures are never shared or used to train AI.
