How do I convert DCR images to AVIF with LetsConvert?

Upload your Kodak DCR raw image, choose AVIF as the output format, select a compression mode (lossless for perfect fidelity or optimized for smaller size), and click Convert. The file is processed in your browser and you can download the resulting AVIF immediately. No need to install any software or register.

Why should I convert DCR to AVIF instead of exporting JPEG or PNG?

DCR is a camera-specific raw format with limited browser and app support. AVIF, based on the AV1 codec, delivers superior compression and supports modern features like 10-bit HDR, wide color gamut, and transparency. Converting to AVIF reduces file size by up to 50% compared to PNG/JPEG while preserving more image data, making it ideal for web publishing, sharing, and future-proof archiving.

What happens to DCR metadata and color profiles during AVIF conversion?

The encoder reads EXIF, GPS, and ICC color profiles embedded in DCR and applies the correct color space (sRGB or Adobe RGB) during demosaicing. In lossless mode, pixel data and 10-bit depth are preserved exactly; in lossy mode, the AV1 encoder uses perceptual quantization to retain visual quality while balancing file size. Lens correction and noise reduction settings are baked into the output, and no raw sensor or proprietary Kodak data remains in the AVIF.
