How do I convert ARW to PNG using this tool?

Upload your ARW file by dragging it into the upload area or clicking Browse. In the output format drop-down, select PNG. Click 'Convert' and wait for the process to finish. Your converted PNG file will be available for download immediately. For bulk workflows, use the batch convert option to handle multiple ARW files in one go.

Why should I convert ARW to PNG instead of keeping the raw format?

ARW files are Sony's proprietary raw sensor data, which require specialized software like Lightroom or Capture One to view. PNG, on the other hand, is a universally supported lossless format that opens in any browser, image editor, or operating system. Converting ARW to PNG makes your photos shareable and easier to work with, while avoiding the large file size of uncompressed TIFF.

What technical details are preserved when converting ARW to PNG?

The converter retains full 14-bit color depth and the embedded ICC color profile, so colors look identical to the original. EXIF metadata (camera settings, lens info) is carried over. PNG is a raster format, so any non-destructive edit layers in ARW will be flattened. Resolution remains unchanged, and if the source has a mask, it is converted to an alpha channel for transparency.
