How do I convert RAW files to JXL step by step?

Upload a RAW file (e.g., .CR2, .NEF, or .ARW) to LetsConvert, select JXL as the output format, choose lossless compression if needed, and click 'Convert'. Download the resulting .jxl file with preserved metadata and color profiles.

Why should I convert from RAW to JXL?

JPEG XL (JXL) offers significantly better compression than RAW while supporting lossless encoding, making it ideal for archiving high-resolution photos. JXL also supports HDR and wide color gamuts, and is increasingly supported by web browsers and image editors, reducing storage without sacrificing quality.

How does the conversion handle EXIF, color profiles, and bit depth?

RAW sensor data is demosaiced and processed to produce a standard image; in lossless JXL mode, the processed pixel data, color profile, and metadata are retained without further compression artifacts. Exposure and white balance settings are baked in; if you want full editor flexibility, keep the original RAW too.
