How do I convert an SRW file to ICO using LetsConvert?

Upload your SRW file at /image-converter/srw-to-ico. Our tool decodes Samsung's raw sensor data and re-encodes it into an ICO container with selectable sizes (16x16 to 256x256). Choose an output size and transparency mask (e.g., squared, rounded corners, or alpha from source), then click 'Convert'. The resulting ICO file is downloaded instantly—no manual image editing needed.

Why would I need to convert SRW to ICO instead of using another format?

SRW is a 12-bit or 14-bit raw format with a linear sensor response, so it is cumbersome for direct use as a system icon. ICO is the standard container for Windows icons, supporting multiple embedded sizes and an alpha channel for smooth transparency. Converting to ICO lets you reuse a high-quality raw capture as a custom folder icon, favicon, or application shortcut without requiring a graphics editor to manually build .ico files.

Does the conversion preserve the SRW image quality and metadata?

Because ICO is a raster format with a maximum size of 256x256, we downsample the SRW's full sensor resolution (often >20MP) to the chosen icon dimensions. The 12/14-bit linear raw data is tone-mapped and converted to 8-bit sRGB to match how icons are displayed; this may reduce highlight latitude, but color and gamma are mapped via the embedded SRW color profile. Alpha transparency is generated from your selected mask since raw sensor data has no inherent alpha channel. Technical metadata (camera settings, GPS, lens info) is not written into the ICO container because ICO lacks EXIF support, so if you need to retain that information, make a copy of the original SRW.
