How do I convert a NRW file to EXR?

Upload your Nikon RAW file, select EXR as the output format, choose your preferred compression method (lossless or PIZ), and click Convert. The tool will demosaic the sensor data and encode a floating-point OpenEXR file, ready for VFX pipelines.

Why should I convert NRW to EXR?

NRW is a Nikon-specific raw format designed for photo editing, while OpenEXR is an industry-standard HDR format that supports 16-bit and 32-bit floating-point channels, multiple layers, and lossless compression. Converting NRW to EXR makes your raw data compatible with compositing software like Nuke and After Effects, and enables HDR processing beyond the camera's dynamic range.

What attributes are preserved when converting NRW to EXR?

The conversion preserves resolution, bit depth, and embedded color profiles (like Adobe RGB or sRGB). However, since EXR does not support standard EXIF/ISO metadata, camera-specific tags are stripped; you can embed custom metadata channels. Raw sensor data is demosaiced and can be stored as full-float EXR to avoid clipping highlights, ensuring HDR flexibility.
