RW2 to DDS Conversion: FAQ

What are RW2 files?

RW2 is a file format associated with RAW images shot using a Panasonic Lumix camera. Unlike compressed formats such as JPG and PNG, RAW images cannot be used as such but need to pass through post-processing. Professional photographers favor RAW images because they allow them to have more freedom to adjust the image and shape it the way they like. However, setting your Panasonic Lumix camera to shoot RW2 images might not be a good idea if you are an amateur photographer and do not have some knowledge about how to use an advanced image editing program.

What are DDS files?

DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications.
