How do I convert an ICO file to ORF with LetsConvert?

Upload your ICO file to LetsConvert. Select ORF from the target format dropdown (under 'Raw formats'). Adjust optional settings if needed, then click 'Convert'. Once processed, download the ORF file. Your original ICO remains untouched.

Why would I need to convert an ICO to an ORF raw file?

ORF is a raw format from Olympus cameras, storing 12-14 bit sensor data. ICO is a small raster container for icons with multiple sizes and transparency. Converting ICO to ORF is useful when you need to feed a custom image through software that only accepts Olympus raw files—for example, applying Olympus color profiles or noise reduction algorithms to an icon-based test image.

What happens to transparency and icon sizes when converting ICO to ORF?

The converter extracts the largest icon (e.g., 256×256) and discards smaller resolutions. Transparency is flattened over a black background because ORF does not natively support alpha channels. The RGB data is upscaled to 12-bit depth and wrapped in an ORF container with a minimal Olympus EXIF header. No Bayer demosaicing is performed, so the resulting file is a raw container with non-Bayer pixel data.
