How do I convert RW2 to GIF using LetsConvert?

Upload your RW2 file, select GIF as the output format, and choose options like frame rate, scale, or transparency if you're using a burst sequence. Click Convert and download your animated or static GIF. The process preserves the visual tone but quantizes the raw 14-bit color data to an 8-bit 256-color palette.

Why should I convert RW2 to GIF instead of keeping the RAW file?

RW2 files are camera RAW files with wide dynamic range and high bit depth, but they are not universally supported and are huge. GIF is an 8-bit lossless-compression format ideal for web graphics, logos, and simple animations. Converting RW2 to GIF dramatically reduces file size, adds browser compatibility, and allows transparency and animation—all at the cost of color depth.

What happens to the metadata, color profile, and resolution when converting RW2 to GIF?

The converter renders the RW2 sensor data through its default demosaic process, applies your color profile (usually sRGB), then reduces colors to a 256-entry palette. Resolution can be scaled down; if the RW2 has 14-bit depth, that information is discarded. EXIF metadata may be copied if the source is a single still, but animation frames are composited without overlay metadata. Transparency is supported in GIF via a 1-bit alpha channel.
