About ARW Image (.ARW)
ARW is a raw image file format used by Sony digital cameras to store unprocessed image data directly from the camera's sensor. These files preserve all the details and image quality, allowing photographers greater flexibility in post-processing compared to JPEG images. The ARW format is similar to other raw formats like Canon's CR2 or Nikon's NEF, but tailored specifically for Sony devices.
Technical Details
An ARW file contains raw sensor data along with metadata such as camera settings and lens information, stored in a proprietary Sony format based on TIFF. Specialized software like Adobe Lightroom, Capture One, or Sony’s Imaging Edge can interpret and process ARW files. Because ARW files are unique to specific camera models, software updates often include additional profiles to support new Sony cameras.
Additional Information & Use Cases
Raw files like ARW enable photographers to adjust exposure, white balance, and other parameters without degrading image quality. Since the data is uncompressed and unaltered, these files tend to be much larger than standard image formats. Interestingly, Sony introduced the ARW format alongside its Alpha line of cameras to cater to professional and enthusiast photographers seeking high-quality image editing.
