SRF to ABW conversion is the process of transforming an image stored in the SRF (Sony RAW Format) into the ABW image format, adjusting pixel data, metadata, and color profiles so the resulting ABW file is viewable and editable where ABW is supported. This conversion involves decoding the SRF camera RAW sensor data, applying demosaicing and color correction, then encoding into the ABW target with chosen compression or quality settings.
