How to use RAW Editor
RAW Editor develops camera RAW files right in your browser, like a pro desktop editor: white balance, exposure, highlights and shadows, texture and clarity, a tone curve, a colour mixer and black & white, colour grading, noise reduction, lens corrections, straightening and cropping. It works with CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, DNG, RAF, ORF, RW2 and more. Editing is always free, and your photos never leave your computer. Nothing is uploaded or stored by us.

Common questions
Can I edit RAW photos online for free?
Yes. Editing is always free for everyone, with no sign-up. Saving a JPG uses one of your free downloads for the day, at full size. When today’s free downloads are used, credits or Pro let you keep going.
Are my RAW files uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser on your own computer. Nothing is uploaded, and we never see or keep your photos.
Can I carry my edits into another RAW editor?
Yes. Save an XMP file and keep it next to your RAW file with the same name. Most popular desktop RAW editors read it and pick up your settings. Their engines differ, so it's a close starting point rather than an exact match. DNG files keep settings inside, so some editors ignore an XMP for them.
Which cameras are supported?
Most cameras from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus/OM System, Panasonic, Pentax, Leica and more, plus DNG from phones and other apps.
How do credits work here?
Only when you save. Editing, Auto, looks and copying settings never use anything. Each saved photo counts as one download: a free daily one, or 1 credit, and Pro is unlimited.
Why is it best on a computer?
RAW files are large and need a lot of memory to develop. Computers handle them easily; phones can struggle with big files.
