How do I convert CR2 files to PNG using LetsConvert?

Upload your Canon CR2 files to our converter, select PNG as the output format, and click 'Convert'. You can adjust the DPI or color profile before conversion. Once done, download your PNG files—all without losing any image quality.

Why should I convert CR2 to PNG instead of keeping the raw file?

CR2 is a proprietary Canon raw format that requires specialized software to view. PNG is a lossless, universally supported format that works in any browser and most image editors. It also supports transparency, making it ideal for web graphics and compositing. Converting CR2 to PNG reduces file size while preserving image detail.

What happens to image quality and metadata when converting CR2 to PNG?

The conversion preserves resolution, color depth, and DPI, but the raw sensor data is rendered into standard RGB pixels. PNG uses lossless compression, so the visible image is identical. However, proprietary CR2 metadata (e.g., camera settings, lens info) is not retained in PNG. Instead, PNG stores basic metadata like color profile and transparency.
