ORF to RB conversion is the process of transforming Olympus RAW image files (ORF), which contain unprocessed sensor data and camera metadata, into RB format images. This conversion applies demosaicing, color profiles, and optional compression or quality settings to produce RB files suitable for viewing, editing, or archiving.

The ORF file uses the MIME type image/x-olympus-orf and stores raw sensor data ideal for post-processing. RB files typically use the MIME type image/x-rb and support codecs optimized for balanced compression and quality. ORF files are commonly used by professional photographers, whereas RB is favored for quick viewing and compatibility.
The RB (.RB) format is commonly used for ebook. Understanding its characteristics can be helpful when converting to or from other formats like ORF.

ORF is a raw image format proprietary to Olympus cameras, preserving unprocessed image data with high detail. RB, by contrast, is a more versatile format designed for efficient storage and easier access across various platforms. While ORF files are ideal for advanced editing, RB offers greater convenience for general use and sharing.
Keep original ORF files for archival: raw files contain maximum sensor detail for later reprocessing.
For best quality, convert to RB using a high-quality (lossless or high-quality) setting and a wide color profile like Adobe RGB to preserve color information.
If converting many files, use batch conversion with a preset profile to ensure consistent results and save time; test settings on a few images first.
Watch file sizes: lossless RBs can be significantly larger than compressed RBs; balance storage limits with image fidelity needs.
This converter made switching from ORF to RB effortless and fast.
