ARW Converter

What is a ARW file?

ARW file is associated with Sony Alpha Raw image file or ArtStudio project file. As ARW is based on TIFF format as a raw image format that collects all information from the Sony camera sensor, these files are enormous and impossible to send or share before compression to a more usable image format. Even though ARW is acting as a digital negative, there is a way to manipulate it before compression. To open the ARW file, you can use programs such as Microsoft Windows Photos and Windows Live Photo Gallery on Windows OS or Preview for Mac OS. However, you’ll be required to install the Sony Raw Driver to be able to use these programs.

What is a GIF file?

GIF or Graphical Interchange Format is a bitmap image format that was introduced back in 1987 by CompuServe. Even though GIF supports only 256 colors, it has significant usability on the web because it is portable and compatible with different platforms. GIFs are mostly used on websites for banners, header images, buttons, etc. Because GIF is a lossless format with LZW compression method, the image quality doesn’t deteriorate with reduced image size. Since most web browsers can open GIF files, it is easy enough to view them. However, to edit the GIF file, you’ll need apps such as Corel Draw, Photoshop Illustrator, OmniPage Ultimate, GIMP, etc.
