How do I convert a TGA file to DCR on LetsConvert?

What is the difference between TGA and DCR, and why convert?

TGA (Truevision TGA) is a raster graphics format common in video and graphics pipelines, supporting alpha channels and RLE compression. DCR is Kodak's raw sensor format used in professional photography. Converting TGA to DCR wraps the image in a raw container, enabling advanced post-processing in apps like Adobe Camera Raw, with flexibility for white balance and tonal adjustments.

How does LetsConvert handle color depth, transparency, and metadata during TGA to DCR conversion?

LetsConvert preserves the original bit depth up to 16 bits per channel. TGA's alpha channel is not supported in DCR and is flattened against a white background. Color profiles and EXIF metadata are embedded into the DCR file. There is no re-encoding of pixel data, so the image remains lossless.
