RAW to CAL Conversion: FAQ
What are RAW files?
Also known as "digital negatives", RAW photos are uncompressed images that include all the details captured by the camera's sensor. They need to be post-processed using an advanced image editing software. Shooting in RAW mode allows the photographer to have more control over how the image will eventually look, compared to the case of other compressed formats, such as JPG or PNG. The downside of using RAWs, however, is their enormous size, which makes them difficult to store and transfer.
What are CAL files?
A CAL image file represents a monochrome bitmap image that uses the CALS raster image standard for storing graphics data. This standard was created in the 1980s by the US Department of Defence as a compressed interchangeable image format. CAL and CALS are extensions used for similar purposes.
