The CR2 file format stores data in the CR2 format. Converting to TIFF produces a image file that stores high-depth raster images with optional lossless LZW compression and supports multiple pages in a single file. This conversion changes the file's encoding, compression method, and supported feature set. The output is pixel-accurate: no further quality is lost beyond what the source already encoded. This makes TIFF the practical choice when the destination system requires it or when the target format offers better compatibility or compression. 1converter runs this conversion on the server: your file is uploaded encrypted over HTTPS, converted using trusted open-source libraries, and the output is held for 24 hours before automatic deletion.
